A few questions

1. Does anybody have an extra power cord (for computer, monitor, etc) I can have?

2a. Does anybody want a really crappy bike? It has two flat tires, and last time I got new tubes, the front one went flat again within three weeks. The derailleur is also broken, so it likes to throw its chain. Said bike is currently unlocked next to the bike rack in the courtyard.

2b. If nobody wants a bike, does anybody know how to dispose of a bike properly?

With fire. A blowtorch, if possible.

The Pitzer bike shop would probably like your bike. I think they remake them and give them away, or sell them cheap to people that want them.

I would assume bike shops or thrift stores would take a broken bike. I think Play It Again Sports remade bikes to slap on the discount rack.

I've heard that in certain neighborhoods, you can set unwanted items on the front porch, go out for lunch and the item will magically disappear before you get back. I've always wanted to try that. Unfortunately, I don't live in a neighborhood. . .

1. Sure. Do you need it at Brighton Park or here?
2a. Got my own.
2b. Leave it unlocked during a party or at the end of the year. The train station also appears to work; there's still a front tire there, locked with a severely bent U-lock.

Jeez, did the bike I sold you die that fast? I'm sorry if it did; it never gave me any problems.
