>And there was the key, in the front pocket of the shorts.

Several years ago I lost the keys to a Nissan pickup I had.  I always have a 
spare set so after a desperate search used the spares and had another spare 
set used.  About two years later during an unusual cold spell I drug out a 
heavy coat that gets uses once every two or three years and there in the 
pocket were the missing keys.

Several years ago I lost the keys of the current pickup and try as we might 
I could not find them.  My spare was in the trailer in North Carolina while 
I was in California.  I do carry a plastic key in a credit card sized piece 
of plastic.  I took that to a lock shop that I know does very good work and 
they were able to make a metal key off that.  I had to go online to find a 
place to get the keys for the shell.  I keep a set of trailer keys under the 
trailer so when I got back I was able to get in.  Not long after I was back 
in NC my wife called to say she found my keys on a counter in the laundry 
room.  I think I came into the house with arms full and set them on the 
nearest flat surface and subsequent loads buried them.
