Found Objects

I've been hearing stories lately about people who are walking down the street and find things. How come this never happens to me? I never just stumble across something cool laying on the sidewalk or in the street. I did see a run over fork today that I guess I could have picked up and actually used (It's hard to ruin a fork, even when you run over it.) but that's not cool. Last week a friend of a friend "found" a 40 GB IPod on the sidewalk. 3 days ago, a chick I know found a 66 Yamaha 90 CC scooter in an alley way.$100 later, she now has a sweet ride. It's not fair.
