Lost Wallet
On Saturday Sheila and I left my wallet in the LaSalle Street train station. This morning I went back there and someone had handed it into lost property.
They took the $20 that was in it, but left both the credit card and cash card. If they’d have taken my cash card, that would have been real bad… They couldn’t have used it (it’s for withdrawl of cash with the PIN only), but I’d have had to of gotten another one sent to me via my parents back in the UK. The $20, as far as I’m concerned, is their “payment” for doing the right thing, even though the maximum they could have gotten was $4 (from the credit card), they didn’t know that.
That’s pretty cool, huh?

It’s surprising the range of niceness and badness you find in the big cities. Unfortunately it’s the bad things that flavour one’s memories more than the bad.

Absolutely. “Hey man, gotta dollar?”
