Anyone find a camera in High Park?

[junctionist]

I lost my Casio Exilim camera in High Park today at around 12:30. It was in a black leather case that looked like a wallet. Being super slim, it fell out of my pocket as I was biking by Grenadier Pond. If anyone has any information send me a PM. Thanks.

I admire your optimism

Well, hopefully you're putting up posters in the park. That's more likely to catch the person who found it than this forum.

Maybe try Craiglist too! Good luck!

Yes, I found it! How amazing that one of the 30 people on this site would somehow come across your camera. I mean the odds had to be....a million to one.

I'm going to place the camera on a bench in another park. I assume one of your friends will see it, recognize it as yours, and get it back to you.

If that's meant to be a wise guy answer, I'm not sure it's called for...

Ha! I put it up everywhere: Craigslist, Kijiji, Flickr groups, here, and someone actually found it. I'll be picking it up when I get back to Toronto.

I was given a bottle of cheap Canadian champagne once, as a "thank you" for handing in a lost cell phone at the police station, after the owner reclaimed it. I handed in a wallet I'd found on the Pape bus, and someone wrote a letter to the paper thanking the anonymous person who'd returned it. But I always keep money I find on the street.

Once you get it back you should write in to The Star's Acts of Kindness:

I once handed in some large amount of money (at least 50, probably 100+ dollars) I found in a subway car around Rosedale--just the principle of the thing, with an amount that large. A month or two later, unclaimed, I got the money back--call that a reward on principle.

We're both such saintly figures. I found a cell phone in the subway this morning and handed it in to the driver.

My reward will be in heaven.

Earlier this spring I found a $15,000+ cheque from McLellan & Stewart lying in the gutter at King and Jarvis. I mailed it back to M&S. Eventually I got a nice letter from the payee.

I don't think M&S paid me that for a whole year when I was a junior designer with them in '77-'78.

However did you afford your platform shoes and poly-blend slacks?

 

[Urban Shocker]

The platforms were in 1972/73. The poly blend never happened.
