Strange But True Stories

In one of those strange tales that the media love to close the news with so much, Lena Paahlsson in Sweden found her wedding ring, lost in her farm kitchen sixteen years ago, now on the loving body of a carrot growing in her garden.

This is yet another variant on the lost ring found in a fish tale that crops up every so often. The latest of these tales that I can recall is that of Joe Richardson's graduating class ring, which he lost fishing in lake Sam Rayburn Texas in 1987, and which turned up in a fish caught in the same lake in November 2008 by another fisherman, who tracked him down and returned it.

File them both under the 'strange but true' category.
