A California man who lost his wallet more than 40 years ago finally got it back when workers fixing a movie theater discovered the billfold stuck in a radiator.
"I remember losing it," 70-year-old Epigmenio Sanchez said. "I just don't remember where."
The wallet still had family photos, old pay stubs and a couple of department store charge cards he had not seen in more than 40 years.

His birth certificate also was there.
The only thing not in the wallet was money - but Sanchez said he cannot remember whether he had cash when the wallet went missing.
Sanchez said he used to go to the movies with his wife, Tillie.
"We wanted to get away from the kids for a while," Tillie Sanchez said. "That was our little escape."
Epigmenio Sanchez said he never expected to see the wallet again. "It brings back good memories."

Even as he grows older, Microsoft founder Bill Gates still fondly remembers the catalytic computer code he wrote 50 years ago that opened up a new frontier in technology. Although the code that Gates printed out on a teletype machine may look crude compared to what’s powering today’s artificial intelligence platforms, it played a critical role in creating Microsoft in April 1975 — a golden anniversary that the Redmond, Washington, company celebrated on April 4. Gates, 69, set the stage for that jubilee with a blog post reminiscing on how he and his old high school friend — the late Paul Allen
Australia’s strict immigration policies have long been criticized, particularly for how they treat people with disabilities. Having been residents of Australia for years, Scottish Laura Currie and her Italian partner, Dante Vendittelli, recently experienced the impact of these immigration policies. Their son Luca, born in Australia and diagnosed with cystic fibrosis, became the reason their residency application was denied due to the anticipated high healthcare costs.
