   While working a Fourth of July event:

   So there I was, a weird little clown chugging around on a weird little mutant tricycle.

   A guy walks up to me and says, "Nice bike. Give it to me."

   I politely said no.

   He asked, "Why not?"

   Without thinking, I blurted out, "At the moment, This is my means of production. To seize it would be Marxist, and that wouldn't really fit the theme of the day."

   He gave me a somewhat confused fist bump and left me to my weirdness.

      @RussSharek Nice response. I felt put off by his demand to 'give it to me." I would have added, "and then I pedaled away."😗
