You're about to leave the building when you realize that it's raining. You have an umbrella at home, but you didn't bring it with you. Do you have to just get wet?
Here are Amir Entezari and Babak Asad standing before an UmbraCity kiosk--their solution to this common problem. Sign up for the program, then swipe a credit card. The machine dispenses an umbrella. If you return it to a kiosk within 2 days, it's free. If you don't return the umbrella, the system charges $2 per day for up to 10 days.
Entezari and Asad are debuting their program at 5 locations on the campus of the University of British Columbia in Vancouver.

...But it'll teach us NEVER to do stupid promises, even in the hottest moment of the fight...!
But there isn't.
Nope. i got nothin'
Problem seems to be that Death has another sence of humor or fairness...
Thanks for sharing.
I hope no one ever gives Barry Delaney a hard time about this, it was a good thing, doing it out of respect and friendship like he did.
We are grateful and proud that Barry kept his promise and Kevin will be sitting somewhere laughing...
Wow, Sandy your son was obviously a wonderful person, cheers to his m8 for keeping the pact.
Honor above all is lacking in most people today.
Thank you for posting this, it brings a touch of humanity to all who witness it.

For some reason, I find this way more touching than the parents who married at their kid's funeral.
