Red paperclip

I heard about Kyle MacDonald a few months ago. He was on a quest to trade a red paperclip for a house, through a series of trades.

And it worked! In less than a year, even!

Here's how it played out:

one red paperclip
fish pen
doorknob
coleman stove
generator
instant party
skidoo
trip to yahk
cube van
recording contract
year in phoenix
afternoon with Alice Cooper
KISS snow globe
movie speaking role
one house by the town of Kipling Saskatchewan Canada.

That's just pretty damn cool.
