Finally gold in the scoop...but can't keep it. A friend of my brother's coworker lost his 14kt white gold wedding band during his beach wedding Sunday evening so we went out looking for it. After about 2 hours I finally found it. Although it's hard giving back my first gold, I'm hoping the karma God looks down on me, lol.

Finding gold and having s.e.x are very similar - once you do it, it isn't nearly as long before it happens again.

Got to disagree with that statement, after marriage oh well you get the picture.

Hey, at least you know it works and you've broken the seal. Now go find one you didn't know was there!

Well, the ring has been returned to the owner and not even a thank you back. Wasn't looking for a reward, but some sort of acknowledgement would've been nice. My brother is disappointed too, but at least we know we did the right thing getting it back to the owner.

Sorry to hear about the ungratefulness. Jeez, at least you should have felt their appreciation, and a meal ticket would have made it sweeter too. You will still receive rewards for doing the right thing. It's coming!!

As it's the guys wedding ring maybe it reminds him too much of his wife! Seriously though, like you say even just a thank you would be nice. Well done to you anyway buddy for your good deed.
