yep, a nice debit card....
so, i took a hour or two to track down the rightful owner. actually ended up calling someone i found in the phone book who had the same last name, turned out to be a distant relative, they ran the find up the phone chain, and got back to me
apparently it was allready canceled but they really apreciated me calling

zippoz "in times of widespread chaos and confusion, it has been the duty of more advanced human beings - artists, scientists, clowns, and philosophers - to create order. In such times as ours however, when there is too much order, too much m management, too much programming and control, it becomes the duty of superior men and women and women to fling their favorite monkey wrenches into the machinery. To relieve the repression of the human spirit, they must sow doubt and disruption" "People do it every day, they talk to themselves ... they see themselves as they'd like to be, they don't have the courage you have, to just run with it."

Did you know you can drop in a US mail box ? And, they will send it to the person.

That was nice of you!!
Recently we were renovating our upstairs unit and in some closet my fiance found an OLD high school ring....I managed to track down the owner of it, called her, and she was thrilled We mailed it to her new house. It feels good to do the right thing

Doing the right thing is nice. My mother left her purse in a shopping cart at Wal*Mart when she was loading the groceries into her car, once. She returned to the store after realizing she left it there, but somebody had already taken it. Just as she got back home, somebody from the store called her up and said a person found her purse and turned it in to them. Nothing was taken from it; she had everything in it. Her credit cards, driver's license, and like $300.
