Danged fine stuff, though. I highly recommend getting a copy of the actual magazine.

The founder of Found is from my town; I met him at a 2004 New Year's party. Cool guy.

also that episode of This American Life originally aired in June of 2003. There's a new Found book out, however. I myself have a fairly large collection of found photographs and playing cards- found stuff is cooler than my stuff.

The only cool thing I ever found was $20 bucks. I used it to buy beer.

Davy once gave me a ride from North Philadelphia into Center City.

Or else I gave him a ride.

I really can't remember. But it happened, yessiree.

It isn't the first such site I ever saw, but it's definitely the first glossy magazine I ever saw devoted to found objects.

And Davy, well, he helped me clean up my parents' basement after my eighteenth birthday, so he has a page in the lifetime cool book.
