hehehehe...
You're on a roll tonight.
*slowly slides drink away from you*
;-D
Movie didn't have any badgers or llamas in it. Sean Bean looked nice, though.
Mushrooms?
Snakes?
Stuned beebers?
hehhehe... sorry. :-)
Funny... I've only seen ONE person from my company come out here tonight. He was lost. They must have been off in some other part of the complex. Cool.
Well sort of. But they would have had to rewrite the next season...
I would rather have seen ______ kill ______.
Well......there might have been a stuned beeber in there.
I don't know what The Good Guys were worried about....Bad Guys couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.
Yeah. Me too. I really thought ____ was a goner after the incident with the ____. But it didn't work out.
____ just needs to die. :-)
Had the wierdest thing happen today... Was at the liquor store to pick up some adult beverages. Handed the clerk my bank card and drivers licence. He says "Sorry, we can't accept this card because it's not signed." (Instead of signing my cards, I write "SEE ID").
So I say "If you need a signature to compare, it's on my ID."
But he insists and hands me a slip of paper that says Visa requires all cards to be signed. So I say "Sorry, none of my cards are signed. Guess I ain't buying anything here."
I've been doing that on my credit and bank cards for a half-dozen years, and this is the first time I have had any problem like this.
Why the hell does a signature on the back of a card make it more secure than checking a photo ID?
Honey.... lets get started so we can see who kills _____ .
*sticking tongue out at all of you*
Isn't that always the case?
It doesn't make it more secure. It is a rule from Visa, rarely enforced. I've had mine questioned too, but almost every time a photo ID is enough. My card also says "Request Photo ID" instead of a signature.
The signature protects Visa and the store, not you. All they have to prove is that the signature on file matches the signature on the back of the card. That the signature on the back of the card provides a sample for a forger to copy is not important to them.
If you really want to annoy them... tell them that "SEE ID" is your signature. Sign the slip "SEE ID". :-)
Saw "Serenity".
I want the ship. I want it, precious.
I also want the DVDs.
I'm guessing it's protection for the company. If the signatures on a charge match the card...
I dunno. We got burned with credit card fraud when we lived in Arlington. This was before Jr. was born.
Someone got our AMEX number and charged almost $800 at FAO Schwarz by phone. AMEX was great though. I was in Arizona and tried to use the card. We didn't have to pay anything. AMEX took care of it all and sent us a new card.
Then, since it was right before Christmas, I got an instant card at "The Limited." It was when wife's youngest sister and neices we're in their early teens. I charged $27.00 that day.
We never got the card, but I got a bill for $300.00. It was obvious (to us anyway) that someone had picked the card out of the mail and used it. The "signature" was printed and it used my nickname, not my full name.
I had to fill out a 10 page affidavit and have it notorized before they would admit the charges weren't ours.
Hehehe, we were just discussing that option.
Careful. Why do you think _____ killed _____?
Hehehe....Bad Guys must all come from squirrel-deprived locations.
OK, we got our hot chocolate with Bailey's, and we're hitting the couch.
See ya later.
Nite. I'm goin' myself.
My ~intent~ is to be at Lowes at 6 a.m. and then go work out afore rehearsal at 9 a.m. Please don't be surprised if'n I don't make it.
Right behind ya, Corin.
Having slight difficulties with my wireless internet tonight. Had to reboot to get back in here. ~sigh~
It's almost midnight, so I'm gonna get some sleep.
Right after I find a spot in the bed for me. Both girls are already asleep in it and I don't want to end up receiving a kick from Aly's cast in the middle of the night. Yikes.
Couch is looking good.
Nighty night everyone! See you tomorrow.
Oh, and Ramius...take more pictures! < /Hair > *grin*
