Make that "they're". Just woke up, caffeine low, dog ate my homework, et
cetera.

I don't think this is the case. If you take two life insurance policies
out on an individual, you collect on both in death. My homeowners
policy does not prevent me from filing a claim with another insurance
carrier if I have one. It does prevent me from finding a vendor who'll
tack on an extra charge to cover the deductable. That's padding.

Can you say dime a dozen? I bet there are at least 5,000 day workers
in SoCal riding that very same bike.

Like Pete indicated, try a bike shop this time. Even a $200 used bike
in a bike shop would be 100% more bike than the bicycle shaped toy
taken from your garage.

Time for a barking dog and a big gun. I've been known
to sleep with my two wheelers.

One like what, pray tell? One who finds something that you view as
misfortune, fortunate for you? You can't admit that you bought a piece
of junk that looks kind of like a bike? I have a 1955 Rollfast
middleweight cruiser that I picked up on eBay for $20 that is more
trailworthy than your kmart bike was. You've had your pity party, now
move along Aliso Viejo.

There was a thread on the local bike club site, about a local guy with over
2,000 Hawthorne bicycles in his collection. It mentioned that he was finally
going to start letting some of them go. Now for the life of me, I can't find
any info on it. I would love to have one.
