 I started a this mosaic puzzle of the US Flag but twice it fell off the top of my car.  That's right.  Twice.  You see, I do puzzles on a large sheet of cardboard on an octagon bumper pool table and wanted to use the pool table so I moved the puzzle to the top of the car in the garage.  Well, of course I drove out of the garage with the puzzle on top and it went all over the street.  My kids picked up the pieces and we put the puzzle back on the car because we were still using the pool table. And, you guessed it, I did it again.   It was a very difficult puzzle anyway.  Needless to say I never finished it.  I'm certain we didn't find all the pieces.
