Rebuilt Kirby $129.95

In about 1998, my friend Pete (who is the drummer in our band) had a seizure while driving and had a bad accident. He was in the hospital and then laid up in a nursing home for a long time after. I went to visit him regularly and eventually, he was able to leave and walk out on his own—with the aid of some crutches.

Now about this time, I happened to notice a sign outside of a vacuum store in Richfield; that advertised a rebuilt Kirby for $129.95. With Pete’s last name being Kirby, I had this idea…

So after Pete was out in the world again, while he was riding with me in my car, I pulled over and told him to stand under that sign. Then I snapped this picture with my old 35MM camera. Eventually Dave scanned the picture and I found it in the folder called, “Kevin” on his computer. So, here is the classic “Rebuilt Kirby” photo!

Anti-Hypocrisy Not Anti-Prayer

Saying that "prayer is not enough," when children get shot at school, is NOT being, "anti-prayer." It IS being "anti-do-nothing," like those who value living children less than they value guns (or unborn children). It's time to call-out the hypocrisy.
