Go Figure ...

[Capt Dizle]

First day of the year, I left my wallet at the check out at the grocery. Somebody found it, turned it in, and I got it back intact, including the cash I had.

Proves I am as dumb as ever, hints my luck might be changing.

I haven't lost any gloves yet this winter, and it's already January. I must be getting thoughtful or something.

[Japher]

are you wearing gloves?

[Footie Mad]

On your next pair of gloves,sow a note on the inside that says "I have a serious condition of highly contagious hand warts". Then when the thief puts them on he feels something inside and has a look...

I really haven't had to wear a jacket or gloves all winter.

okay it gets a little chilly not wearing a jacket when it's 38 degrees out. But I'm only outside to and from my car.

In the meantime, I bought myself a new pair of ski gloves for $7.92 (sans tax) from Wal-Mart.

Check the tag. "Made in China"?

On the New Year's Eve I lost a single glove from a pair that costed me 75 € one week before it. Then I found it into a pile of snow Stupid italians with no good taste

I bet Lost and Found has a camera on it if you want to report a crime.

Wal-Mart?! No way. They buy American! Yeah, they do! Why, I'll ...

**checks tag**

... curse them to HELL, I tell ya! How dare they support the Chinese communist/corportist non-democratic state?!

**blubbers** But, but, Wally world is always advertising on TV and in the media how they buy American-made!

*cough*

Ahem. Enough theatrics from me, thank you very much. Indeed, the gloves were made in China. It should come as no surprise, since it's a textile product, and there's very little of that industry left afloat in America.

Na. It's not like the stolen gloves were made of silk or anything. They're just your standard, $10-a-pair gloves, nothing more. All the more reason why it's hard to fathom why somebody couldn't keep their sticky mitts (heh) off of 'em.

I'm too lazy to do that. But now that I'm aware gloves are a prized commodity in these here parts, I'll have to keep an eagle eye on them.

Bison should be pretty inexpensive, at least it is here. They often run a special at the local butcher on bison sirloin for $11 a pound. It's really high quality meat and even cheaper than beef sirloin. I really love it.

I rather like it. $11 a pound sounds about right, at least if you take away the mark-up the restaurant proprietor must add in order to make a profit.

Hmm. One can only imagine what Americans' diets might be like had bison, and not cattle, become a major source for our protein.

The most likely explanation is that he already owned a hat.

Also, it is most likely that a person other than the glove thief is the one who turned in the hat.

**sigh** I shall have to wait until I have my life review after I pass on to find out the truth, I guess.

Sort of like a soft *plop* *plop* *plop*... if they land on tile.

More muffled if they land on carpet.
