The g/f and I are just leaving church tonight when she asks me if I have a flashlight with me. I'm perplexed because she knows I'd have one, but I have no idea why she'd be asking me in church. It seems the woman next to her had somehow lost the diamond setting from her ring. Took out the A2 (formal enough for church, yet exceptionally functional ;-) and searched for a couple minutes. It has rolled/bounced all the way under the next pew. Looked like a pretty decent sized piece of jewelry.

A great little Christmas story. I also brought a flashlight to church tonight and used it after the service to avoid getting hit by drivers on thier way out :)

Neat. I wish I could have used my McLux today in Church. There was discussion about a Light today. A Light that darkness could not extinguish nor understand.

Merry Christmas!

What were the chances of you and your girlfriend sitting next to that lady? It's a christmas miracle!

I am unclear. Was the miracle that the lady was sitting next to a totally prepared flashaholic when she lost her jewelery or was the miracle that his girlfriend and him were sitting in the church?

Where are all those people who said you can't have a high powered flashlight because "you'll shoot your eye out", NOW?

Good job.
