• A few dozen rotting lobster carcasses on the side of a road/sidewalk that I had to walk by on the way to school every morning.

• Used condoms in various locations.

• An unidentified animal corpse in a brown paper bag on a road right by my house. It was there for a few days before someone re-bagged the stinking mess in a fresh paper bag and left it there.

• A Gumby figurine in a parking lot. I was a very young kid at the time, so I kept it.

• Someone left some G.I. Joe armored personnel carrier toy on my front lawn when I was a kid. I kept that as well.

• Porno mag in my company's dumpster. Unlike the above toys, I didn't keep that one. ;)

• A duffle bag with with some ratty clothing items.

• A coconut in my mailbox.


Maybe someday I'll find something really good, like money. :rolleyes:


Who put a coconut in your mail box?

I used to work at a grocery store. Once I found an unused road flare in a bag of trash. I gave it to my friend to hold on to, but it stayed in his trunk until he got rid of the car.
 
An Akai S612 Sampler in an alleyway. It worked too!!
