Funny you bring that up. I was at a strip mall yesterday and a kid, probably sixteen or so, walked up and complimented mine, then wanted to take a look inside and stuff and talked about how he was trying to find one himself.

He might have been casing it so he could steal something, but I prefer to believe that he really liked it! (What is it about getting older that breeds distrust of teenagers? Oh yeah--I used to be one.)
