Aw, just a dumb joke, I didn't mean to make you feel bad.

No strain, some gain.

obHack: The clasp on our fold-up shopping cart broke so I dug into 
        the bin of bicycle lights and pulled out one with no battery 
        and an elastic band meant to attach to the bike post and used 
        that to keep the cart from flopping open in the storage area.
