Ew. I know several men who carry their keys clipped to their belt loop, including my husband and brother who both have keys to this house.

Right now I'm having visions of a little cloth shroud to cover one's keys that could be color-coordinated to the rest of one's outfit!

The cloth wouldn't do any good if they loaned the key to someone, BW.  A million years ago in another life, I had some bad/costly experiences with employees copying keys then coming back at night to steal materials --and that required enough hands-on time to get to a keymaker.   The only way I could slow it down was to order "cylinder locks" for which the locksmiths do not carry blanks.

My valet story goes back many years.

I had flown into L.A. from Hawaii for a meeting with some Japanese buyers at the Bonaventure Hotel.
I was running late, grabbed a renal car and sped to the hotel from LAX.

I was only 5 minuets late and the meeting lasted 2 hours.

When leaving the hotel I went to the valet BUT I had lost my valet ticket.
No problem. All I had to do is describe the vehicle.
I could not remember what make, model or color the car was.
All I did remember is the I had left my sunglasses on the front seat.
Three hours later they found my rental car.

THE END
