• Creative help for Joel

    Topic:  Joel is looking for an artist to convert his bikes into astro-bikes.

    Once, on a planet far away and long ago, some Carls stole Joel’s bike and turned it into an astro bike.  It finally went the way of all flesh, and he has missed it ever since.  He has a blue bike with black fenders, and a white bike.  Both are crying, “paint me as an astro bike, paint me as an astro bike!”  Joel went to MIT so he is not artistic.  If you are and would like to take on this project, (say one or the other bike), please let him know.  There will be a reward!
