One Red Paperclip
Chosun brought
One Red Paperclip to my attention today - and it is apparently quite a big day. I urge you to go to the site to find out what it is all about yourself, but my less than fully educated view: this guy started on a quest a year ago, with only a dream and one red paperclip. His goal? Initate a series of trades that would, eventually, lead to him owning a house. Today, he will receive the keys to that house. Where's the house? Some small town in Saskatchewan, where, on Labor Day weekend, he will throw the biggest houseparty the province has ever seen (or so he promises). It's a pretty cool story, involving things like a fish pen, Alice Cooper, and a Hollywood movie role. Go check it out.
