My wife recently had her ATM/Debit card stolen. She works at a parcel mailing place part-time. She keeps her purse in the back of the store and one of the package delivery drivers swiped it out of her purse. She and her boss figured they knew who did it. Due to her doggedness in not letting it go and her calls to the PD and the stores where it was used plus the bank, they caught the perp, just who they thought it was. Turns out he used a fake name to get hired plus was wanted in a couple other states for burglary and robbery. He's cooling his heels in a Texas jail as I type. The bank was quick in taking off the $300 in bogus charges to our account. You've got to act quick to catch these guys. The store where he used the card was within a day of taping over the surveillance tape.

"Well Cletus, should we call the kitties on this one?"

"Gee Bubba, I dunno."

Note: You do NOT have to give out your SS number to go on a cruise. The cruise lines ask for it, but you have the right to refuse it.

We had to straighten this out with Carnival before we went on a cruise with them.

Port Authority personnel at the NYC piers are unconscious. It would be so easy for terrorists to slip on board a cruise ship there.

We waited 4 hours to board there because one of their cameras broke down. (You have to get a photo ID before boarding).

Then, each time we entered a port and I wanted to disembark, they swiped my ID card and a different person's picture showed up on the screen. Nevertheless, they allowed me to disembark and re-embark!

Homeland Security, please take note of this HUMONGOUS GAP in Port Security!!!
