Devin--The Metal Detecting King

Once Upon a Time there lived a man named Devin.  Devin had a wife, children, a home, a job, but what made him the happiest was a little machine called a METAL DETECTOR.  Devin would go out every day if he could with his metal detector and a screw driver and hunt for that long lost treasure: a coin, a nail, a ring.  Hours and hours of hunting enjoyment. 
One evening his sister-in-law called and asked him if her husbands brother could borrow the metal detector.  He had lost his wedding ring (which he has only had for a couple of months) and it could not be found.  Could this actually be happening?  The moment he has been waiting for?  Could he actually "save" a marriage?  He was all over it like flies on poop.  Devin finished his dinner, loaded the magic machines into the truck, and departed on his quest to save the day. 
He traveled to a small Idaho farming town known as Rockland and met up with the distraught newlywed that was dreading going home without the ring and sleeping on the couch.  The hunt was on.  WAIT-what is that???  His wife hears the phone ring and answers it because it is her prince in shining armour Devin.  She answers----Hello...HELLO.....and than it becomes clear, Devin has butt dialed her and has no clue she is listening to the entire conversation.  This goes on for quite a few minutes.  She tried to hang up but the phone wouldn't disconnect.  Hmmmmm, what to do?  She decides to send a text to the troubled newlywed:  "Hey (name)-could you tell Devin he butt dialed me and I can hear your entire conversation".....
She waited and actually heard his phone ding when he received the text.  He began to read it and laughter followed.  FINALLY-the butt conversation was ended.
Fast forward a couple of hours and Devin arrives home with a huge smile on his face and he says, "I am the MAN."
Of course the story of how the ring was located followed.
The two men drive to the field the ring was lost in.  Devin scanned the field with the metal detector. What was that???? a Beep???  The dig was on.  Hmmmm-it was only a nail. Bummer.  Devin had him reenact what had happened when the ring went missing.  That wasn't good enough-so Devin sacrificed his own wedding ring for the cause.  He reenacted the scene-let his own ring fly off into the night-and now there were TWO missing rings and if not located-two extremely pissed off women.  Devin was able to locate his own ring after a few moments of nervousness and narrowed down where the other ring probably landed.  A few more moments passed and BEEEEEPPPPP! YES!!!!!  The ring was found.  Devin actually did save the day. 
Devin couldn't have been more proud of himself and the fact that he was a "hero" who butt dialed his wife-made the evening even that much better.
Moral(s) of the story:
*Make sure you have your ring sized properly before working in a field
*Make sure you know where your phone is before speaking. (you never know who may be listening)
*Make sure the hero of the story leaves his ring home so it doesn't get misplaced
*Remember that anything, especially funny stories, may end up on a blog for everyone to read.
