When life hands you lemons, make lemonade.

My son got a blowout last night. Took his car to my friendly tire shop and got a new tire. Almost as an afterthought, as I was leaving I said "Can I raid your wheelweight bucket?" (They've given me lead before.) "Sure." He says. Scored about 2/3 to 3/4 of a 5 gallon pail.

Still have to sort it, but free is the best kind of lead there is!
