    Gotta love Craigslist..best of.

    Ha!
    __________________________________________________ _______________________________________________



    Lost 5 dollar bill
    I was performing a magic trick that was going to make a 5 dollar bill appear in my buddy's wallet. I already owed him some money from when my last magic trick accidentally knocked one of his tooth out. So at least I knew if I did this trick right, I'd owe him $5 less than I already did for dental bills.

    Here's the problem: The cash didn't end up in his wallet -- It ended up in one of yours instead. I did some investigating and it turns out the fiver ended up in the wallet of someone in the New York area. Not only did my trick fail but I'm also out $5 now which is a lot of money for an amateur magician in this economy.

    Please check your wallet to see if you have an extra $5. If so it's probably mine. Maybe you've had a couple of drinks and aren't sure how many 5 dollar bills you had to begin with. Again, it's probably mine so before you sober up and have to deal with the shame and guilt of not doing the right thing immediately, you'll want to mail it to :

    [address]

    Sirscrapalot - I think a lost a ten if anyone finds one in their wallet.

    Correct BC, It's Priceless.

    One can not put a price on such a treasure as my cooler. Unlike that hunk of land you call an Island..Wasn't it bought for 2 cows an a herd of sheep back in the day?

    Sirscrapalot - Priceless an awesome, **** my cooler is sweet.

    My son, when he was young, would ask "Dad do you have any extra money?". I would closely examine all the contents of my wallet, including the money only to respond "No I don't have any extra money". Surprisingly he asked me the same question more than twice. Mike

    Another interesting question. How many people will send him $5 just because they got a kick out of the post, or just to wonder what his reaction would be??????
