Dime 87

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

Found – In an old beach bag I’ve been using a Tommy Bahama beach bag for the past few years (or was it Caribbean Joe?). It’s well worn and pretty badly stained. It has leather straps and a leather bottom so it can’t really be thrown into a washing machine without getting ruined. And it’s [...]

Dimes 85 and 86

Monday, July 27th, 2009

Found – in the parking lot at Shop Rite The house that I have been looking at and was interested in, dropped in price again. It was the second price drop in about 2 weeks, so I decided to take a little drive past it on my way to the supermarket to see if they [...]

Found – in the grass at a Willie Nelson, John Mellencamp, Bob Dylan concert I went to see a John Mellencamp concert last summer and I found a dime in the grass at that show. This year, he was doing shows with Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan. A friend and I decided to get tickets [...]

Found – on the floor at IGA I was running errands, stocking up on supplies for some tailgating this evening. I had already bought the chips, the snacks, the drinks, the water, the wraps, etc. The only thing I had forgetten was some seltzer or club soda. I can’t drink soda, neither regular nor diet. [...]

Found – on the street during a bike ride It was a beautiful day and I had a ton of energy. I hadn’t been using my bicycle all that much lately, not as much as I would like to, so I decided that it would be a lovely evening for a bike ride. I didn’t [...]

Found – in the parking lot at Trader Joe’s It was a perfectly beautiful sunny day and I did not feel like sitting in my office in front of my computer. I had several errands that I needed to run, so I figured I would take a few hours on a beautiful afternoon to run [...]

Sunday, July 5th, 2009

Found – on the street during a walk I wasn’t feeling very well. I had eaten and/or drank something that didn’t agree with me the night before when I went out with some friends for the 4th of July. We went to one of my favorite NYC restaurants, Becco, for dinner where I had the [...]

Dime 80

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

Found – in the middle of the hallway exiting Pathmark I had an appointment to look at a house at 10am. I’ve totally outgrown the townhouse that I’m currently living in, and with real estate prices being as low as they are, think it would be a good time to upgrade to something larger. Unfortunately, [...]

Found – on the floor at Gray’s Papaya I met up with a friend at a bar on the Lower East Side of Manhattan for some drinks. Somehow, over the course of our conversations, we got to talking about the existence of God and/or the lack of existence (he is a staunch Atheist), the Universe, [...]
