The 4-Wheeler has been painted and tuned up! It is finally ready to go to and be traded for the next item. The paint is fresh and and all wiring has been inspected and approved for riding. The oil has been changed and the gas lines have been checked. This thing is ready to go full force. With it being hunting season in many areas I think this could find a home very soon, and those Super Bowl tickets for the sick child are just around the corner! Check out the Twitter page @TwoBlueDice for more photos!
I'm on a mission to trade my dice for items over time for the chance to send a child with a life threatening illness to the Super Bowl. I have been inspired by the "One Red Paperclip" story in which a man traded a paperclip for a house after many trades over a long period of time. I want to use that model to help an ill child to realize his dreams! Please follow along on Twitter @TwoBlueDice

Over the Airwaves
Greg and Dan, from WMBD 1470, invited me back for another round of being on air with them and I couldn't have been happier to accept. Its been awhile since I was able to get the word out through another form of media besides my blog and Twitter so it was great to go back.
I gave an update of the project, including where it all started and where I am today. I had a blast going on the show again and I can't wait to go again. They are always a pleasure to be around and truely appreciate their helping me spread the word.

Four Trades, Four Wheels
After making the deal in principle a couple weeks ago, I was finally able to make it official this past weekend! I traded the iPad for a Kawasaki 300 4-Wheeler. The trade came from a family in Southern Illinois, who were very easy to work with and excited to help. They had a need for a tablet computer and were willing to trade away the quad to get it. The vehicle is in full working condition and can be used as is, but I am going to make a few cosmetic changes. After I get a new paint job done on this machine it will look better than ever and I will be able to make the next trade that much easier.
With this last trade, I am getting closer than ever to the overall goal of sending an ill child to the Super Bowl. I realize that it will soon not be my goal and dream, but a reality. If you or anyone you know would be interested in trading for this item please let me know by emailing me at againsttheodds2012@gmail.com or send me a message on Twitter @TwoBlueDice. Thanks so much for the support so far and that which is given going forward!
