Looking is a prelude to finding except for those times when something finds you first.

Have you ever found what you're looking for?
(please say yes so I can laugh at how terrible Bono is at finding things he is looking for.)
I've found the inspiration to post that I just did a wee bit of last year's taxes - adding up all the money spent on prescriptions.
I found the Murphy's Oil Soup and I dusted. I do not remember where I put that big pack of large plastic sleeves, but I have not searched for those yet.
I'm so ashamed to think you might have fallen for it. Please forgive me.
I wouldn't want for you to think I thought you so gullible to fall for an old trick like that.
Don't even look. It's no big deal.
I'm pretty sure your win is safe.
Either don't search for them or search everywhere and find them in the last place you look where they can't possibly be. That's been my experience.

I think I probably have to be polite to you given what that image could mean.
That's right! I tell people that often times when I am looking for something I find it in the last place and they say, "of course!" and then, I think, "never mind" because I mean the last place.
It means that when there is absolutely no place else to look for it, there it is! I tell myself just to look in the last place first, but I do not know what the last place is.
Even if you knew what the last place truly is, the knowledge itself will warp the universe and make the last place no longer the last place.
And how do I know this secret of the universe, you might ask? Of course I'll tell you - it's a secret.
You're always polite to me.
I like that.
What more is there?
Of course, there's the winning I'm doing here, but I mean -- other than that -- where it really counts.
Does it really matter who wins?
quite possibly is mimicking mother, father and numerous other "loved" ones who keep screwing around with the emotions of said 4 yo.
I've never tried Murphy's Oil Soup...how does that taste?
Even after I've found whatever it is that I'm looking for, I usually look one or two more places, just so it isn't the last place I would look for it...
Wow.
I should have known.
If anyone was going to demonstrate that high level of consideration for another -- such as to continue looking for something, even after one has found it, it would be you.
Please, pardon me as wipe away an errant tear.
I bow to you, sir.
Aw, shucks! Tweren't nuthin'!
Now. Now.
Please, don't be overly modest.
Most people would cease the search once they have alighted upon the searched for thing.
But, no! Not you.
You would not be dissuaded from the search by so minor a thing as the attainment of that thing!
Hold thy head high.
Breathe deep that victory which thou hath so rightfully drawn into thy realm.
I suppose it is about bedtime soon.
Maybe. If so, goodnight.
If not, then, hello.
If not, then, hello.
No but it's fun.
How Shakespearian.
Hello is better than oh h**l (I read that in a book)
I suppose that when the win so surely settles upon mine brow, I should fret, refute, or deny that glory which begs to be embraced!
Instead, I should bold grasp the hilt of mine own glory-sword!
To have -- to hold -- to steady-grasp that which man so seldom dares to feather-touch.
The win!
