Back when I lived at Goodnow Hall, there was some creeper who stole a bunch of women's panties throughout the year.

I'm sure there is a creeper at goodnow every year but that happened the semester I was there too. Dude put them on a christmas tree in his room

I like going to the laundromat. Never been worried about my underwear being stolen because i generally sit within eyeview of my washers/dryers.

Just keep an eye on your crap, reid.

laundromats are fantastic people-watching spots

Found a wallet in the suds Y'r duds parking lot that appears to belong to a goEMAW'er, I thought it would make for an interesting story if it belong's to you.
anybody?

Wow, one of you is keeping your lapel pin in your wallet and just leaving the thing laying around laundromats?

Oh man, this could be even better than the Mancave/Kansassports sage.

I'm definitely staying tuned.

You scared the crap out of me since my wife just did laundry there yesterday.

I'm not sure what to do in this situation. I tweeted @him about it, have I done all I can do?

Does it have an address on his license? If it were my wallet you were returning I would certainly appreciate the extra effort to get it back to me with a fat cash tip, since replacing things is a huge pain.

It has an out of state ID, I didn't go through the contents of the wallet so I'm not sure if there is anything else that would have their address. I might look into that when I get home.

That is good to hear. In "Farmer Boy" when Almanzo returned Mr. Thompson's pocketbook he did not initially get a nice reward for his honesty. It was only because Mr. Paddock threatened that penny pincher Mr. Thompson that Almanzo received $200. It is always nice when people learn lessons from children's books.

Fecal matter is found in like 80% of public laundry machines. Hope you guys are cool with having other people's poo on your clothes.
