Boomerangs return, but not always as a result of being thrown. The town of Mount Isa, Australia, recently received a boomerang that had been mailed by an American who said he had stolen it from a local arts museum in 1983. "I was younger and dumber," wrote the thief, who also enclosed a check. "It was the wrong thing to do. I'm sorry." Although the culprit included his full name and address, Mayor Ron McCullough would identify him only as "Peter from Vermont".
a simple example of how extraordinary people can be.
