I Need An Idea

Last week i bought a tool bag full of tools. I paid 20 dollars and it was a great deal.

However when i got it home i found a small point and shoot camera in the bag.

It has about 800 pictures of a man and his boy and girl. When the pawn shop buys something every night they send a description of everything they bought during the day.

If they do not send a really good description of what they bought the police can write them up and eventually close them down.

I do not know if the tools were stolen or if the man pawned them and did not know the camera was there. Or he did not care.

I would ;love to give the camera or the card back to whoever owned it.

I made enough money on the tools to give the camera away.

However i have no idea how to find the owner.

Any ideas?

    I live in the country and i keep having people stop on the side of the road. My closest neighbor is about 1/4 of a mile. I have had at least 10 people do this. On at least 2 occasions i have seen them smoking something in a clear pipe. Also they always stop at night. I am worried about them stopping and then sneaking up to the house and stealing from my shop or breaking in my house.

    I told the deputys and they say they will send a car out once in a while but i have yet to see them.

    Last night around 10 pm i was taking the dog out to use the bathroom and a truck was parked buy my mailbox. I went back inside to get my pistol and he was leaving when i walked back out.

    I have snuck up on one and got about 5 yards from the car and shot over the hood and it was about the funniest thing i ever saw. it was a guy and girl smocking out of a clear pipe. Drugs went everywhere.

    How can i stop people from doing drugs in front of my house.

    Explain the situation to the pawn shop, then they'll contact the man or woman who pawned it, and if they want it back, the pawn shop let you know how to get hold of them

    But the pawn shop can't just give you their information without first asking them, and vice a versa

    LOL My daughter is the manager of the pawn shop. She called the person and the phone number is out of order. Like they did not pay their bill.

    It is a good number its just turned off for now.

    So have her send a postcard.

    If there is no good address or phone number, that pretty well ends it.


    +1. At least you will have to tried...

    Burn to dvd or cd, mark it and put it in her file. The pawn shop does keep records right?

    If that person ever comes back and they look like the pics, give it to them, if not have them arrested.

    So erase the images and use the camera....or give it away or toss it.

    People who pawn items and don't return to redeem them, don't care. How do I know?
