I have a ghost. A thief ghost.

[WilliamPitt]

Two Zippo lighters and my glasses have disappeared since yesterday evening.

Grr.

[GOPisEvil]

1. I think Boomer is messing with you.

Look under the bed.

[JimmyJazz]

2. Your cat ate them.

[DS1]

3. Or maybe it's just your glasses that are missing

/free detective work

4. If you have a cat start looking under the bed

I was missing my remote control and somehow it magically got way underneath my bed. I tried beating a confession out of my cat but they just sat there and acted like nothing was wrong (ok, btw, I would never beat my cat!)

[merh]

14. Did you try the bright light routine?

That wouldn't work either. Most cats are smart enough to wear shades or close their eyes.

5. I had one like that

It (he/she????) would TAKE stuff (unimportant things, brushes, combs, BO juice, e.g.) over the course of weeks, and then dump it in the sink--it would just appear, after I had replaced the missing items. Oh, I lived alone at the time, not counting dogs and cats and bird.

I never was a 'believer' but between the footsteps on the carpeted stairs that sounded like they were on hardwood every night around ten PM and that, I changed my mind.

13. The one that shared my space would put things back

where they belonged AFTER I'd convinced myself that whatever was missing must not have been where I thought it was.

15. Sara steals my husband's mechanical pencils all the time

and she loves silverware too..Reaches right up on the table and pulls it off:grr:

[Wickerman]

6. Your maid is nabbing them and selling them on eBay

such is the price of being a famous columnist.

[XemaSab]

20. Famous???

More like notorious.

He's the Notorious W.R.P.

;)

[Lerkfish]

7. mice can also do that.

[stellanoir]

8. damned gremlins and visogoths too

I'll bet.

[Arwennick]

9. In my best Elaine voice

Dingo got your Zippo's

[Beetwasher]

10. Nahh, That Empty Bottle of Scotch is Probably More Responsible

n/t

[WilliamPitt]

16. My bottle of scotch is quite full, thank you

[VelmaD]

17. Well, yeah...the one you bought...

this morning is. :P

[Beetwasher]

18. Ahh, But Is Chuck Bungfeeb's Bottle Full or Empty?

Now THAT'S the question! And what was he up to during the time your shit went missing? :evilgrin:

[jeff30997]

11. What a coincidence !

I have two Zippo lighters and a pair of glasses to sell !:evilgrin:

[VelmaD]

12. Maybe the universe...

is trying to tell you something. :shrug: ;)

[NewJeffCT]

19. somebody is probably scalping them in China

Zippo lighters go for big bucks over there. I guess it is trendy or something.
