Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings all around the world
I always see posts on here about people paying it forward and returning things that have been lost, so I hate to be a downer... but on Monday my iPhone and credit card were stolen from me while I was out with some friends. My wallet was recovered, with ONLY the credit card missing. Turns out it was used six times, once at a Tim Horton's and five times at the same gas station. My cell phone was turned off immediately after being stolen, but it contains my entire work portfolio along with family photos that are pretty irreplaceable. I've filed a police report, but I'm hoping that if anyone has any information they'll be able to help me out. The phone is an iPhone 4S with a small scratch on the front. The card has been cancelled and the police financial crimes unit are currently investigating, but all in all I'm just really disappointed in whoever did this. Karma will catch up to you even if the cops don't.
Monday, March 17 around 730am I was driving to work West Bound on the 401. I spotted a black SUV pulled over to the side of the road on fire. I pulled over to call 911 and they said no one had called it in. I didn't see anyone in the vehicle as I drive by but a transport truck pulled over as well awhile back. Hope everything was ok.
Signed,
A worried citizen!
I want to give a big thank you to the female officer that arrived at my house on monday night after a suicide called to my address from my children..You talked me into going to the hospital that night to get the help that I deserve and my life back. You sat with me almost all of the night and talked to me like a real person and never once did you judge me at all. you also gave me a roll up to win free coffee . Thank you for just being there with me and listening to me. God bless you and keep you safe. a grateful mom and grandmother

Sitting at my kids school waiting to go in and a guy parks in front of me, i made it a point to park before the walkway to let the kids in wheelchairs cross the street ok, and this guy parks in front of me and blocks the walk way so anyone crossing cant, were is the common sense and consideration?
To the person who found my purse at Devonshire Malls food court and brought it to the lost and found desk yesterday evening, I wish I had been given the chance to sincerely thank you with all my heart. That purse contained every single piece of I.D I own (which I know is pretty dumb) as well as many other possessions of value, and I would have been totally and completely screwed had it not been returned. Your act of kindness truly saved me and reminded me that sometimes a small gesture like yours can mean the world to others. Thank you!
Yesterday was quite a day. My girlfriend had mentioned that she wanted to go to the Toronto game in Detroit because we have never seen them play at Joe Louis. I wanted to surprise her so I waited until yesterday to find cheaper tickets that couldn't be sold. I looked on kijiji.com and found someone selling then for $75 a piece. I offered the lady $100 for the pair because money is a little tight and she informed me she would get back to me. I let her know that if she decided to sell them to us I wouldn't be able to pick them up between 4-5 because I tutor during that time. Turns out the lady was a retired teacher and she said that she would sell us the tickets in the end. When I got to her door she told me that she changed the price of the tickets to FREE and to go and have fun with my girlfriend. She went on to say she knows what it's like to be a beginning teacher and how hard it is. Refusing to take my money, just told me to pay it forward.
Amazing to see there are such generous people out there and I will definitely find a way to pay it forward.
