Here's a good one. I received a Postal Money Order from someone I sold parts to like last Friday or Saturday, opened it up and left it on the counter. Cleanup of the counter before a party involves grabbing everything, putting it in a large box or laundry basket and it gets sorted later. Xmas came & went, kids, relatives, presents, food blah blah blah. Parts orders are behind so I decided to take off tomorrow and get everything packed up for a few people that bought parts which is what I was in the middle of explaining to my wife when I mentioned the PMO. Here is what transpired:
J = Jeani, Played by my wife.
V = Vinnie, Played by the getting angrier husband
V: "Where's the Money order I want to take it to the post office and get it cashed and ship out my orders."
J: "what money order?"
V: "the one I got for like $80 bucks and I left it on the counter"
J: "There was just an envelope on the counter? Didn;t you take it."
V: "No. Where is it?"
J: "I was cleaning up today and may have tossed it. I thought it was empty"
V: "Did you recycle it or throw it in the trash?"
J: "I'm not sure."
We started to look through every pile of bills, boxes laundry baskets and recyclables we could think of. The house is under constant construction, which does not help matters and we turned up NOTHING!
J: "When did you see it last?"
V: "When I got it"
J: "Before or after X-mas?"
V: "Before"
V: "When is the last time you threw out the garbage?"
J: "Today and it's at the curb. There's like 5 bags of X-mas trash out there."
V: "RRRRRRR!"
V: "Well honey, you are going to have to look through the garbage and find my money."
J: "I'm not looking through garbage for a money order."
J: "Let exhaust every place we can think of before having to sort garbage."
V: "We've already done that HONEY!"
V: "How about the Garbage under the sink. How old is it?"
J: "Only from today. It might be in there"
First I decide to look through the bag which is under the sink, thinking maybe she just tossed it out aaaaand nothingggg. She goes outside and grabs the first bag from the curb. I start to look through it and will spare the gory details of what I had to sift through but keep in mind that I had 12 people over eating and drinking here for the holidays (luckily she takes out a seperate bag for cat poop) but about 3/4 of the way down I see an envelope. Pull it out and look at who it's from. Bingo! and what do I find inside, a PMO. WHEW!.
She claims she opened the flap and did not see anything but did not look inside. The Money order is small enough that you do not see it by just lifting the flap.
Thanks for listening to me story. You can't make this stuff up.
Happy New Year!!
