OT.. a find.
I was reading FHB and it listed in the Forum a few incidents of people
finding interesting things while demolishing and renovating properties they had moved into. It reminded me of a time when I was removing a few kitchen base cabinets and found an old wallet left behind in the kick. It had just a small corner of a familiar colour brown 100 dollar (Canadian) bill poking out from between the folds. That's all there was... a small piece torn off a bill, taped to the wallet. The rest was empty...but for just a fraction of a second, I felt lucky... and somewhere, maybe no longer on this earth, is/was some schmuck laughing his ass off. A prank with a time-delay fuse.... |

Sounds like the story of the Cadillac owner plagued by a thumping somewhere left and below the driver's seat. After removing all the panels, a Coke bottle - soda type - with a note was found. The note read : "have fun finding this, you rich *******." I'm more inclined to believe yours, though. |
