ok, Ian will probably not like me posting this but one of the first things I found on his boat when we started dating many many moons ago was an old condom, which of course he said was not his. And of course I know that was the truth because I am sure there was never any one before me

years ago I used to sell expensive tennis clothing, I was on a business trip in San Diego and was staying in the old Ocean Beach hippie area. I drove a van with racks of tennis clothing and expensive tennis rackets. When I went to the van in the morning I found the door adjar, and the van was in the middle of the parking lot. When I got in I noticed the stereo was yanked out but still hanging by the wires. I then noticed on the floor was a baggie full of pot and several rolled joints. I guess some stoners tried to steal the radio and got scared away, they didn't even bother to steal several thousand dollars worth of tennis gear. I always wondered how they must have felt when they realized they left their stash behind, it would have been a perfect Cheech and Chong skit do you young guys know who Cheech and Chong are

I used to do car audio for a living a long time ago, and found all kinds of strange stuff in cars.

Pulled out the seat of a car once, and underneath were a bunch of bank wrapped 100's and a 9mm. (That may have had to do with the shop's proximity to Newark.)

Found polaroids of wives / girlfriends a bunch of times, but more often than not they were pictures you wished you hadn't found.

Found a ten dollar bill inside the blower when it stopped working.

Found an amazing amount of koozies when I sold the boat and had to clean it out.

when redoing the drop tile ceiling in the basement of our old house, i found 4 $100 bills that was hidden on one of the tiles. According to my wife (her house before i moved in) the previous owners were in a lengthy divorce & the hubby was living in the basement. He must have hid the money there so wifey wouldnt rummage thru his stuff. Guess he forgot about it. The money ended up paying for the materials for new ceiling & almost made up for all my labor.

I had a bodyshop till a couple years ago. I worked on my nieghbors car and found about ten pics of her naked in the glovebox when I was looking for the paint code. She was about 25 and from Thailand. I told her about the pics. All she said was "You like them?" as she smiled.
Another time, we were cleaning out a repoed car and found one of those tarantula styled dildoes all covered in pubic hair and crusty stuff under the seat. That was a little gross!

Condoms, porn, pot, termites, panties.

Sometimes I need rubber gloves!
Was any of that on our boat ?
