Odd conundrum - Page 4

In my desire to discover and interpret metaphore in real life, I think we need to contemplate the deper symbolic meaning of your discovery of these two cards.

First off in the context of Monopoly you accidentally aqquired the two most prized properties in that game. Thus in some ways it might be an indication of a change in luck especially in regard to property. But the rest of the game is missing, indicating perhaps some self sacrifice or loss also associated with this change in luck. A darker interpretation might see this as a warning that you maight indeed "give up the game" in your pursuit of the perfect property match.

In another sense, your desire to reunite the game cards to the game might indicate your own sense ofincompleteness as GD is off on a business trip. Returning these to the game, vicariously returns GD to you.

In a novel there are no accidents

I think we should start a LoT found art sculpture. CP, attach the cards to a ball or something, then whenever any of us finds an odd object we'll send it to you and you can attach those to the ball too. We'll eventually get into a museum of Swank.

Sometime last year, I found a fortune from Esmerelda at Disneyland. I do not remember when I got it. When I found it, the fortune seemed right on. I rediscovered it within the last month, and the fortune seems right on. I'm currently using it as a bookmark. But my point is that sometimes saving stuff can be fun.

I am also a pack rat and would not be able to throw those two Monopoly deeds away. My first thought was freecycle, but I suppose craigslist is the same thing?

However, they'd make for a good journal piece or the basis for a found art collage of some sort.

You know, you could tack them to the wall at your local TGI Friday's. They'd probably still be there years from now.

I'd never seen freecycle.org, and now I'm going to post on it.

If these do not get claimed then I will definitely add them to the Swank Ephemera collection.

Hmm, there's more to this freecyle site than meets the eye.

I'm on the hunt for similar sites...
