That's not even the whole of the story. The rest of it goes like this. The total bill was going to be around $260.00. So, trying to be diplomatic, I told him that I didn't take checks over $150 because my check verification service doesn't guarantee checks over that amount. He then suggested that he could write two checks.
So that way when both checks bounce, there will be 2 fees to be paid!!
Why do MLB stadia need jumbotrons if they are not going to show replays of notable plays?
Saw the Cards and Braves in the ESPN Sunday night game at Turner Field. What an awesome screen in center field by Mitsubishi Electric! but they only show great plays and only by the home team.
I had no interest in either team (other than Brave Willie Jones is a helluva lead-off man and LF). But when Jones just missed nabbing a home run by a Cardinal off the top yellow line, there was no replay.
Everybody watching Braves home games on TV and in-house TV at Turner Field may get to see ALL the replays, but the paying public misses out on half the great plays . . . the ones by the visitors.
Why have a jumbotron if you're going to snub the fan?

PS-We've GOT to find places for those facade video boards that run the length of the sidelines!

Oh my, I have got a freaking NOVEL to write about my grand adventure to my new home up here. And its ONGOING.
Look for one really long, hopefully entertaining post here in the near future.
But hey, I'm here, and I'm loving it, so ROCK ON.
Some dude tried to break into my house last weekend. Since I can't send him a message, I'm just going to write it here.
Dude, you are a complete moron. You seriously tried to break into a house with three cars in the driveway and a big ADT sign in the front lawn? I suggest you review the Florida state law, especially the one commonly named the "castle law." I particularly liked the part where you started trying to use your body weight and strength to beat the door down like all four of the people here were going to sleep through that. I can only assume that the reason you were so nonconcerned with stealth is because you wanted to hurt someone. That's fine and I will deal with you accordingly and in accordance with Florida's state laws as soon as you enter the door which you had proclaimed to the whole neighborhood that you were trying to enter.
Went surfing on the left coast USC website. Before you get too far into their official sports site, you must register. After email address and password, they ask for your university and what year you graduated.
The Trojans must not believe in Louisiana Tech or El Ess Ewe, cuz just about every other D-1 university was listed on the drop down menu, but not the Dogs or Tiglets. They even listed Ooh La La and NLULM.
Go figure

Hot and Sour soup reminds me of my mom's pot roast/rice and gravy.
I don't think it's what my mom does to the pot roast, but rather how this chinese place made it's hot and sour soup. It reminded me of the gravy my mom makes from the juices of the pot roast. MMMMMMMmmmmmm........makes me want some of momma's cooking now.
Eating pizza without beer is unimaginable. Drinking beer without søme sort of food is a recipe for disaster.
