I'm afraid Occam's razor won't help. However, lost items are usually found in the last place you look --- so just look there first ;)

 

My Dad used to say you’ll find it in the last place you look. So thanks for the memory. I’ve been missing him a lot, and any good memories are welcome. 
 

And I just wanted to use Occam’s Razor because I heard it again on TV recently. Make a plan on where to look.

I endeavour to be frank and truthful in what I write, show or otherwise present, when I relate my first-hand experiences that are not independently verifiable; and link to third-party content where I can, when I make a claim or refute a statement of fact in a thread. If there is something you can verify for yourself, I entreat you to do so, and judge for yourself what is right, correct, and valid. I may be wrong, and my position or say-so is no more authoritative and carries no more weight than anyone else's here.

I like this! Just drop the apostrophe! ;)  Pretty neat ink, too!

I have the same pen

Filled with a shimmering ink

The nib sadly clogged

It seems far easier

to write a quick one online

than write it by hand...

essayfaire, I did.

mhguda, I concur.

With that, I bow out.

If we do this though

then the thread must move because 

these aren’t handwritten.

Unbelievable!
