one red paperclip

My name is Kyle MacDonald and I traded one red paperclip for a house. I started with one red paperclip on July 12 2005 and 14 trades later, on July 12, 2006 I traded with the Town of Kipling Saskatchewan for a house located at 503 Main Street. (Click on pictures below to read about each trade!)

How rad is this?

My friend Steve has a last name. His last name is McIvor. It's kinda pretty much the same thing as MacGyver. It's like one of his long-lost Gaelic-speaking relatives in Ireland or Scotland messed up the spelling on a form or something. Honestly, I think Steve is Macgyver's long-lost blood relative. We all do. Anyhow, back in Junior High, Steve was the captain of an intramural floor hockey team called Mcivor's MacGyver's. Steve's the best.
