Great story and refreshing in this time of insanity.

Great story but why a Kirby? I freaking hate those!! Should have got him an Electrolux.

As long as it wasn’t an insurance salesman.

I would find a Dyson much more interesting...

The left would laugh at this and say the child should have been aborted. That’s how sick they are.

Meanwhile non-traitor Americans recognize goodness when they see it. This was beautiful.

“In addition to sending Dylan a soccer ball, a hat and a T-shirt with the Kirby logo...”

I was REALLY glad the story didn’t end there.

Ever since I saw my neighbor paint his car with a Kirby, I’ve been a fan.

Oh man, what a great story! What a sweet mom for setting this up for her son, and how good of the company to respond, and how good of the salesman to give him the vacuum.

I totally understand this mother and the boy.. My Special Grandson Andy has a fetish for locks and keys.. I found a garage sale from a former lock-maker that was selling hundreds of old broken locks and keys..

NOTHING, nothing would ever occupy more enjoyable hours than those useless tools.. The guy had some new ones that he almost gave me when I brought the boy back to meet him..

SPECIAL DAYS AND MEMORIES..

As one of my math professors used to say: a vacuum cleaner is the perfect example of a Gödel Statement in the real world, because when it sucks it doesn’t suck. But if it doesn’t suck, then it does suck.

Jack Kirby, shown here with his plans for the first handheld nuclear vacuum cleaner.

A wonderful story, very heart warming during the dark days of Obama.

Can’t stand Dyson and one has to have muscles like Phil Pfister to operate a Kirby. I like Electrolux or canister Hoovers.
