July 31, 200818 yr Does it get any better than that? (Insert wise crack from peanut gallery: "It coulda been a $50!")
July 31, 200818 yr Yeah.... if it had been in my pocket!! I dunno, I don't think I'm fond of the thought of ColonelCrazy digging thru my pockets, especially if I'm still wearing the pants.
July 31, 200818 yr Does it get any better than that? (Insert wise crack from peanut gallery: "It coulda been a $50!") Couldnt get better until you realize, "HEY THESE ARENT MY PANTS."
July 31, 200818 yr Does it get any better than that? (Insert wise crack from peanut gallery: "It coulda been a $50!") Sure, it could have been me that found $20. LOL My buddy here at work found a US Savings bond in his glove box all crumpled that was given to him by his Grandmother 8 yrs ago. He thought it was worth maybe $50. Took it to the bank branch and they cashed it for $700. I said, your buying lunch today. :banana:
July 31, 200818 yr When I was younger and money was not as important as it is today, I would go weeks sometimes without cashing my checks from work. I remember one time I went about 4 months and was digging around in my wallet and found a $300 check from work. It was awesome.

July 31, 200818 yr Good thing you did, don't they normally go void after 180 days? Had this happen to me once. Got a check back for around $1000 after closing on a new home (think it has something to do with excess escrow amounts or something like that), stuck it in the back of my desk drawer (why I have no idea) and promptly forgot about it. Found it over six months later and it had expired and had to have the title company to re-issue me another one. Still pretty darn cool to come upon a check like this that I had long since forgotten about. :ylsuper: Not to imply that I live a life where I can routinely misplace $1000 checks and not notice . . . . . :lol:
July 31, 200818 yr Actually, when I did your laundry for you, I put it in there as a joke. I guess the joke worked, so, now you owe me 20 bucks! LOL When I was working at an organization right after college, I was given a lunch allowance. I would never spend it all and just put it in my desk just in case I was needed to go to a more expensive place to eat. I would rather spend my time catching up on paper work than going out to eat, so, I would grab a burger. Well, one day I decided to clean out my desk. I made a stack of money, invoices, etc....when I counted the money, I was shocked. I even tried to give it back to the company and was told no, that was mine to keep. (I would get 50 in cash a week)....anyway, I ended up with 2,000. PH and I purchased some needed items with that!

Obviously, from reading your post, I can tell the joke worked. So, I'll go ahead and mail you my $20 and you can go ahead and mail me my $2,000. It's nice doing business with the PH family! Everybody twist! (2,000 times)
