"A still more glorious dawn awaits
Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise
A morning filled with 400 billion suns
The rising of the milky way"
"The sky calls to us
If we do not destroy ourselves
We will one day venture to the stars" -Carl Sagan
Wow! That's amazing. Talk about time standing still. I have a little birdhouse that was hanging on a limb of a tree in my backyard. Over the years the branch grew around the chain. Now the house hangs from the actual trunk of the tree. It's amazing to see, but not as amazing as that bike. I wonder if the people who took that picture knew the man.
The Hokey Pokey IS what it's all about
Hmmm, I read a different story about this bike. In the 50's, a young boy was embarrassed about riding this bike(girls bike) so he hid it in the woods and went home and told his mother he lost the bike so he wouldn't have to ride it anymore. The story is from yahoo, so I'm not sure what to believe.
