I went to CostCo this morning when they opened to buy some beer for a Christmas Eve party I'm hosting and to get gas. I got out of my car, walked a few feet and found a dollar bill. It had been raining and the dollar was soaking wet, plastered to the pavement. "Wow!" I thought, I never find a dollar. I went back to my car and put it on the floorboard to dry off and headed back toward the store. Then I found a five dollar bill. And then another five. And then a few more ones. WTF? I looked around but it was pretty obvious no one had recently lost this money...it had been there a long while, maybe overnight. I grabbed some napkins inside and wrapped up the bills and did my shopping. When I came out and loaded up my car, I found three more dollars. Total rake: $18. Whoo hoo!
Got home and realized, I forgot to buy gas. Sonofabitch!#birdsarentreal

I found a wallet with ~$1700 in it last year on the sidewalk (People carry a lot of cash here). Turned it in and never even heard so much as a thank you from the guy.
I like to think I would return a wallet if I found it, but damn, if I found a wallet with 1700 bucks in it I would have a hard time returning it.AAL:to be determined

I'm the 4 star chef in my household.
My wife is the 5 star baker with a young one on the way to joining her someday in that star bracket.
Its a match made in heaven for this food addict with a sweet tooth that would make Santa jealous.Last edited by Panoptes; December 15, 2011, 10:16 PM.19.1119, NO LONGER WAITING

Ben is now on the honor roll, a math all-star, a reading all-star and is frequently going to the 2nd & 3rd grade classrooms because the 1st grade work isn't challenging enough.
He's also 2nd in his class on the amount of books that he's read to this point. His teacher did point out to us that even though he's only read 56 books compared to the other kid's 112, the books Ben has read are bordering on the early 4th grade level.
He's got my looks and Momma's brains!

Thanks Gonz.
He indeed doesn't care about labels. He marches to his own tune and doesn't care who knows it. He's popular, smart, athletic and all the educators love him.
I could be wrong, but he could be the way he is because Leti and I are both very open-minded and put an emphasis on learning. We also encourage him to be socially active with other kids and participate in organized sports.
