Bad Break-up

Found at Kroger. Picked it up right after a lady left it on a shelf.

Dude

I found this in the downtown area of my hometown. I just really freaking love this note. The writer seems like a kid I would have wanted to be friends with when I was in school.

Inch Worm

So, I got out of my final class of the day, and headed to the student lounge to wait for my fiancée to get out of her last class– an hour or so difference. I passed by one of the tables, making a straight line to the comfy chairs in the corner of the lounge … Continued

My friend Amy gave this to me a couple of years ago after I introduced her to FOUND Magazine. I think she found it in the back of a used book. Thanks, Amy!

A Clockwork Lemon

This was found nestled in a copy of Jack Herer’s “The Emperor Wears No Clothes” in a used bookstore.

A Purple Pen

I found this business card inside a coffee table drawer in my dorm’s lobby. I saw the written side first, then flipped it over. As it turns out, it’s from my sister’s school!
