| 4515 | DeLorean sighting | The real "Marty" looks much better in reality (30 years later) than his movie counterpart. Well, at least superficially (if not in health).<br><br><img src="/images/postImages/back-to-the-future-michael_j_fox-47-49-age-fail-prediction-Marty-Mcfly-.jpg"> <br> | Vaporman87 | Oct 22, 2013 | |
| 4514 | DeLorean sighting | It is definitely 2015. Oct 21, to be precise. Present day in the series is 1985. In BTTF1, Marty travels to 1955 (30 years in the past); in BTTF2, they go to 2015 (30 years in the future); in BTTF3, they go to 1885 (100 years in the past).<br><br>confirmation: <a href="http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/hoaxes/bttf.asp">http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/hoaxes/bttf.asp</a> By the way, while I was there, I did think of going to the grade school to look for the superball on the roof.

But it being 100 pounds kind of puts a damper on that theory... though it's not completely out of the realm of possibility. <br> | Vaporman87 | Oct 22, 2013 | |

A little boy whose heart was broken after a thief stole his 100-pound pumpkin got a pre-Halloween treat when the criminal returned it on Sunday with a note, apologizing for his (or her) behavior.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br><br>The note read, "I'm really sorry about taking your pumpkin. It was wrong of me. You earned the pumpkin. I didn't think my actions through nor realize who they were affecting. Sincerest apologies."<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br><br><span id="lw_1382448247120_5" class="yshortcuts cs4-ndcor" style="cursor: pointer;">Jaiden</span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>Newcomer, a 9-year-old from York, Pennsylvania had won the gigantic pumpkin on Sept. 28 at an Oktoberfest event in the nearby town of Red Lion, after guessing its correct weight. “He was really excited to bring home the pumpkin, which was so heavy, four people had to help haul it with a wheelbarrow,”<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><span id="lw_1382448247120_4" class="yshortcuts cs4-visible" style="cursor: pointer; border-bottom: 2px dotted rgb(54, 99, 136);">Corey Newcomer</span>, Jaiden’s father, told Yahoo Shine. <br><br>A week or so later, the pumpkin mysteriously vanished during the night, while<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><span id="lw_1382448247120_6" class="yshortcuts cs4-ndcor" style="cursor: pointer;">Corey</span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>was at work and his wife, Amy; their 5-year-old son, Peyton; and Jaiden were all sleeping. “Jaiden didn’t notice it was gone until he returned home from school,” Corey says. “He was inconsolable for 10 minutes, he couldn’t understand why someone would steal from him.” <br><br>That day, the family published a letter in the York Daily Record explaining the situation, and offers for a replacement pumpkin began pouring in. A Cumberland County plant nursery gave Jaiden a new giant pumpkin, and Cape Horn Beverage offered the boy a smaller one. “Jaiden said the thieves were ‘stupid jerks,’ but he was happy that so many strangers were helping him,” says Corey.<br><br>The family had given up hope until Saturday, when Corey received an anonymous email. “Amy and I were away for the weekend celebrating our 10-year wedding anniversary, but I received a message from a person with an unidentifiable email address, saying that they overheard an acquaintance bragging about stealing our pumpkin,” he says.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br><br>Corey and his wife planned on alerting the police but when they returned home on Sunday after picking up Jaiden from baseball practice, the pumpkin was on their doorstep, with a note of apology taped to it. "I was really surprised that the thief returned it," Corey admits. "On the one hand, the gesture shows that this person has somewhat of a conscience, but it's hard to be pleased with someone who stole from a child in the first place."<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br><br>As for Jaiden: "He and his brother are just thrilled to have their pumpkin back."</font></p></div></div></div> | Vaporman87 | Oct 22, 2013 | |
