My humble offering for the day..

Spent a couple of hours at one of my favorite haunts but pickins were slim and this is all I could round up. As I was getting ready to leave a guy approached me and wanted to know if my detector would find rings. I said that it would. Then he offered me $20 to come own to his house a few blocks away and find a ring his wife lost in thir garden. I told him I didn't have time but if he would give me his address I would stop by tomorrow but he didn't want to give his address up so pizz on him. I wouldn't have taken his $20 anyway. Did this dipso think I wouldn't have noticed his address should I have gone with him right then. Stupid people irritate the hell out of me, and this dork was a mail man who deals in addresses all day long. Are the addresses of his customers all a big secret. He was a goofy looking turd to boot.

UW,
People can be very strange! I glad you were able to get out for a couple of hours good for you.
 
Did it dawn on you that he was probably worried you may come when he was not there and locate the ring to keep it for yourself

The world is fuill of 'em, Bill.
 
what an idiot. who knows how much the ring is worth. i think i would rather find the ring, even if it meant giving out my address. if she lost it in the garden it should be pretty easy to find. (don't mean to jinx you) and it probably wouldn't have cost him anything. if he only knew.

That was my first thought, too. He was probably hoping that you'd find it with him standing there. You really can't blame folks for not trusting these days. :shrug:
 
Yeah he said she pretty well knew the spot where she lost it and finding it would have been a piece of cake - plus I wouldn't have charged him a dime - so his paranoia probably cost his wife the ring. People never cease to amaze me. No wonder Obama is President and the country is going into the toilet. :)

Yeah paranoia is a terrible disease. His wife would have been home. Maybe he thought I might attack her, then steal the ring.

Bill
 
I told him I would stop by when he was there plus his wife would have been there. I also offered my phone number so he could call me and let me know when he would be there.Plus he approached me with the request. It wasn't the other way around. If he thought I was a potential thief he should have just passed me by. Some time ago I went to a home when the occupants weren't there and located a lost ring in their front yard and returned it to them. It was an expensive ring and they offered me a hundred bucks for finding it but I turned it down.

Bill
 
Yeah ain't it a bitch. :) Hope we don't have another lousy one, although they are predicting a mild one. What kid are you expecting up there bud.
