Yesterday I found a newly purchased $18 dream catcher. I went to return it to the store, but the store was closed...so I just gave it to an elderly lady. She was thrilled.
Can't you guys even just imagine it?

Forget practicality, or your experience....can you just....imagine?

It's there. It always was.

Found all the red chairs in my room on their back, when coming home from work.
Wondered what the cats or daughter had been up to. Called daughter. Apparently the red chairs had been irritating her, because of being red. And thus they had to be floored.

A full sized slot machine in a fall clean up pile on the side of the road.  No key and cut cord but otherwise intact I'm going out to drill out the lock when I finish lunch and will post photos later

I drilled out the lock and put a new cord on it and it works!  I have yet to fully figure everything out everything is written in Chinese for the most part and some of the settings require a key that I don't have to change but it should be easy to fix that because it's internal and you can take the cover off of that part with a screw driver

I have a dream-catcher myself too. One larger ring with four smaller ones hanging off it, the dangling parts strung with feathers. I have that in my room strung on the wall over a painting of a vampire chick in a white dress.

Found name tags on the BA counter.

Your name, or someone else's name?

No names. You're supposed to write yours on them. :P

Found my measurement microphone. :woohoo:

And discovered that it didn't work with the RTA I have. :(

  I have also just recently found a hard bony lump on the last joint of my left pinkie.  I suspect
   that I have another one of these, possibly caused by twisting my fingers while carrying heavy bags.

Who did put them there?

Be careful, accepting gifts like this.
