Class ring flushed in 1978, found this week!
Adam Funk
--> More than a quarter-century ago, Jerry Duran watched his
--> 1978 Pomona High School class ring swirl around the toilet
--> bowl and disappear.
-->
--> On Tuesday, the gold ring with an aquamarine stone was
--> headed back to Duran, who now lives in Del Norte, where he
--> builds custom bicycles and is a ski patrol member at Wolf
--> Creek Ski Area.
-->
--> Duran, who said he hadn't thought about the ring in years,
--> said its return is "much to my surprise."
-->
--> Arvada Wastewater Division workers cleaning a sewer line
--> before Christmas grabbed Duran's ring before it was swept
--> though the city's main dump station.
OK, the only reason I'm posting this is that I like the term "main dump
station". Is that sewer-engineers' technical jargon?

Addendum:
--> "But this is the first time I've seen anything of value and
--> in that kind of condition," said Adler, who oversees 4
--> billion gallons of wastewater annually.
For some reason that reminds me of one of those mythical funny foreign hotel
signs: "All the water has been personally passed by the management."

Your Pomona is very extinct.
All the best,

Hi Jerry! I found your ring! It's been steeping in
raw sewage for 25 years! PUT IT ON, HAW HAW.
Oh, and I hid your pocket watch up my
ass for the entire duration of the Vietnam war.
