FOUND IT! 1To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: 2A time

"What is it, Hon? You sound frantic." "I am frantic! I was dumping some garbage into the trash when my wedding ring fell off. Now I can't find it." "That's no problem. The trash can isn't that big.

"See you tonight Dear." "Oh, great! As if I had all day to rummage though garbage. I didn't lose the thing."

I found it in the trash can like you said." "Not this piece of junk. This is little Sissie's play ring.

You said 'find a ring,' so I found a ring." "Some genius you are. Oh well, I guess you'll just have to dig into that trash can again until you find the real thing." "I can't." "What do you mean, 'I can't'?" "I mean, it's too late. The trash man came already and took all the garbage away!"
