I could make a very long list. The one that sticks the most is dropping five "hunderd dollar bills" out of my pocket, and it really hurt at the time. :mad:

I don't generally lose things. The worst was after working a shift from about 8am Friday to mid-afternoon Sunday, then I went home and had some family thing. Had to be back at the customer site at 7am on Monday and at 6:30 Monday I'm running around the house screaming that I can't find my keys when my wife points out that they're in my hand.

But if it helps you decide one way or the other you should also know that being ass-raped at age 14 by an escaped con counts as "losing it."

I hardly ever lose stuff anymore, but I used to go through sunglasses, lighters and gloves like mad. I quit buying zippos after a while - replace four or five of those and you're getting into car payment range. Now I actually wear gloves and sunglasses out and have to replace them. That still seems a bit odd.

The worst thing I ever lost was $400 cash that got thrown out with the post-Christmas trash. THAT SUCKED. I also lost my first wedding ring from my first marriage while swimming at Paradise Island in the Bahamas (ironically, I ended up hawking the replacement for gas money).

My wife, on the other hand, would lose her head if it wasn't securely stuck up her ass. Not a day goes by that she doesn't misplace something. Normally I can find the missing item easily, but one of the remotes has been missing for about two weeks now and I've torn the friggin house apart looking for it. That one may be in the wife zone permanently.

I never lose anything. At least not that I remember. At worst, I'll misplace something for a while in the house. The only thing I've ever lost was a shirt, a wonderful, wonderful shirt, that I think I left in a hotel room while traveling.

Our biggest household problem is "cleaning." Another person who lives in my house, who shall remain anonymous, is ten stages further out than the next most organized person I've ever heard of. She even lines up the dust particles before she dusts. And she's brutal about throwing away papers, especially if they're mine. Over the past seven or eight years, she has:

1. Thrown away two savings bonds worth several hundred dollars each. I had retrieved them from my parents on a trip there, where they (the bonds, not my parents) had been in a drawer for 20 years. When we got home, she threw away all of the "papers" from the trip - magazines, receipts, envelope containing savings bonds, etc.

2. She threw away two nonrefundable airline tickets to San Francisco. "Honey, where are the papers that were on this counter?" "Oh, I cleaned up." Lost a vacation out of that one.

3. Two months ago, she threw away the Valentine card that my mother had sent. "Honey, where's the valentine card?" "I threw it away." "Please tell me that you took out the $80 check that she had enclosed." "What check?"

Our house is very, very neat, but there's a cost associated with it. And in the interest of fairness, this anonymous person questions whether she did any of the above, even though she did.

My wife blames the cats when something is missing.

I, of course, blame them when I fart.

Our cats are gassy. And they steal.

i lost a lot of grey matter between the ages of 14 and 34. i'm sure none of it was alcohol related, nor from smoking alot of pot, or meth, or acid, or coke.
but by the grace of God, i still got enough to get by.

You know that you have found the proper woman when she can always find the stuff you misplace. Take this morning for example, I had misplaced my wallet, and had already resigned myself to the fact that it was stolen, and was starting to freak about having to call TRW and all that excess bs. My wife calmly asks me a few questions then within 2 minutes recovers the wallet where it had fell out of my pants in the recliner.

One summer my now estranged uncle bought me one of those dinoriders toys. It was the pterodactyl. I loved pterodactyl's when I was a kid (now I prefer the T-Rex).

Anyway, I brought it to school. Some jackass in the playground just had to steal it. He ripped off one of the wings and tossed it over a fence. I got the 'dactyl back, but minus one of the wings. After school, I went over the fence and looked for the wing. I never did find the wing.

My pterodactyl's missing wing is probably decomposing somewhere in Scotland, never to be found again.

Decomposing? Was the wing made of baloney or something?
