I invented sending egg-salad sandwiches into the future for myself to find.

When I bought my Blue Hornet in 2009.... it's like it was fit to be. Because I'd been collecting parts for my Yellow Hornet, I wound up with many, many duplicate parts. So when I bought the car, virtually every plastic part on it that was broken, I already had! NOS tail lights, a couple of mint grilles, a full set of Magnum 500s, an AM/FM radio, another set of chrome sport mirrors.

Or the Carter WCD carb I bought for my Gremlin way back in 2008, and then again in 2013 (since I forgot I bought the first one) and then again in 2016 only to find the original one still packed away and sealed up. But somehow in the interim 8 years, I'd lost that first carb and forgotten all about it.

It's like now my laser-guided temperature gun is missing. I bet if I ignore it long enough, I'll find it in the spring when I have no need for it.
