I listed my Woody van with the arts community earlier this week. My first email said:

I've decided to give the van away to anyone deserving, for one dollar.

I'd prefer it goes to an artist who needs it for hauling things, but anyone who needs it can take it.:

About a dozen people said they wanted it. Rather than pick the first person to respond, or have to decide on whose story to believe I invited all the people over today to decide among themselves who should get the van. I had each person tell their story on why they deserver the van, and then the others voted on a one to five scale. As my wife tallied the votes, the next person told their tale.

I was expecting only three out of the dozen people to show up, and we had four. they bought their friends, dogs, and props for telling their tale.

The winner was a woman named Adeline who is going to have the van converted to a biofuel eating, art share vehicle for the community to use. It couldn't have gone to a more deserving person.

I climbed a steep hill today for exercise. 3/4 of the way up someone had left a handy lounge chair on the side of the road. #PayingItForward #WellPlayed by David Jackmanson

My friend Johanna aka mun kuvia - check out her photostream it is fantastic - sent me these wonderful socks. I love them and as you can see Beezer loves them too.

Now it's my turn to pay it forward. So if you would like to receive something handmade from me (although I have to say right up front that I am no where near as talented as Johanna) send me your name and address and I will send something to you; then it will be your turn to pay it forward.

Thank you Johanna.

Jacob with a bookbag full of Chick-fil-a sandwhiches to give to the homeless.

It was the end of the semester and he had money left on his account, so we decided to use the rest and buy sandwhiches to give to the homless people of Atlanta.
