Everyone enjoys a little mystery, and on one strange thing, that's just what you'll

get.

Every other week, one strange thing presents forgotten stories from America's news archives.

They all have something in common, a single element that can't quite be explained.

I'm Laura Norton.

Join me on one strange thing, and you'll hear about a class ring that disappeared on

one continent and reappeared on another.

And a man in Maine, whose vision was restored by a lightning strike.

And then there's the house in Atlanta that dripped human blood.

And those are just the start.

Subscribe to one strange thing now, wherever you listen to podcasts.

There's an old Latin saying that is loosely translated.

A pleasant companion on a journey is as good as a carriage.

And ain't that the truth?

Load a wheelbarrow with a hundred pounds of earth and push it up a rotted dirt path in

the hot summer sun.

And you'll soon discover it's hard work.

Add a second person to the mix.

Need help with the job or maybe just to keep you company and suddenly the task is less

daunting.

Like a good carriage, companionship can carry you along and make the journey easier to endure.

That's what everyone wants, right?
