A lab-mate of mine went to Las Vegas recently (for a conference). On the day he checked in at his hotel, he ran into another conference attendee whom he happened to know.
Lab-Mate (LM): Hey.
Other Attendee (OA): Yo.
LM: Why the long face !?!
OA: Lost my luggage.
LM: Oh really !?! Shame... Anything of value !?!
OA: Yeah, a brand new suit, an IPod Touch and a gold watch.
LM: Whoa! Well, I hope you get it back mate.
OA: Yeah, thanks.
The following evening, LM met OA again. This time OA was in very high spirits. There was gold on his wrist and something in his pocket was playing Coldplay.
LM: I see you found your luggage.
OA looked at him with a blend of contempt and triumph.
OA: FOUND it !?! Why, I WON it back !!!
