Hah! The one time I found a wallet (in Boston) and turned it in, the wallet also belonged to a right reverend.
That is not what prompted the return of the wallet however.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now tagless for your comfort.
A few months back when I walked off and left my wallet on the counter of a VERY BUSY gas station on a Friday afternoon resulted in the very sweet Somali cashier finding it and stashing it in the office until I returned.
I love wallet-returners with all my heart.

Well, let's see.
Job A sent me a very nice letter saying "You were awesome, but we went with somebody else."
Job B just called and said "You were awesome, but we went with somebody else."
Job C has not yet called, but I'm more than half expecting the "You were awesome, but here's a kick in the crotch" response.
I'm all "You know what? I would rather you think I was fucking shit on a stick but PAY ME, YOU ASSHOLES!!"

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Okay there's teenagers making out right outside the box office window. I don't think they can see me. I wish I could turn the hose on them.

I set my iPhone down at a register at Comic-Con and walked away. I got like 3 steps away and went, "My phone!" I went back and the register guy was holding it up and several people around were like, "OH! You don't want to lose that!" Seeing the reactions was awesome. Leaving the phone and getting that minute of panic, NSM.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

You could tell her there's a "three strikes you're out" rule. It will make sense to her once she understands baseball.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Tell her she's awesome, but you're giving the juice to someone else.

I tried that, but then she wanted to get into a discussion of replacement runners and I just bowed out. Baseball bores me.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Need some kitty~ma for Sammie, please.
The specific gravity of her UA was too low, and it was low the last time they took a UA, so they took some blood to begin screening for kidney trouble.
ETA: Waiting for them to call with the results, pretty much any time now....
