FOUND by Bob. S. in Rockland, Maine
Found this in a recycling bin near my home, and I cannot believe anyone would throw out such a perfect photo. The wood panelling, the shamed expression on the man’s face, the livid expression on the woman’s face, and then, the crowning touch: the rose. It’s fantastic.

FOUND by Valerie in New Jersey
I found this on the street walking to pick up my daughter up from school. There are a couple of pre-teen girls in my neighborhood and I guess one of them wrote this. I had no idea there was such drama going on– fights, cake fights, hatred of Bri, and poor grandma.
FOUND by Leslie in Hawaii
I bought a very conservative flannel night gown at Salvation Army as a joke bachelorette party gift. When I was folding the night gown to wrap it, I noticed something in the pocket, this note. The odd thing is that the nightgown still had the tags and everything on it, which makes me wonder if grandma ever even got Gingers note. Also, we have determined that dirty “licon” is dirty “licking”, which in Hawaii means she got a whipping.
FOUND by Ed in my attic
I bought my house in 2001 and hadn’t looked into the attic since then. But this year, to check the insulation, I grabbed a ladder and took a peek. My attic is one of those that is accessible only through a hatch in the ceiling, and you really can’t use it to hang out in or store stuff. But there, sitting atop the fiber insulation, I found a plastic bag that contained the ancient computer-generated picture you’re looking at, and several others like it. I have no idea who these people or why their pictures were stashed in the attic, away from prying eyes. A secret lover? A painful memory? I may never know.
