Been there, done that. Good luck to you!

I heard Lewis Black was looking for a personal ball-washer.

Ensign Steve · #**1256** 02-29-2008, 07:04 AM

What's it pay?

Ensign Steve · #**1257** 03-01-2008, 07:24 AM

Good luck next week, CT. I like to call it "Signature Scavenger Hunt."

Apparently a great deal, with furthering education incentives, health care and all that.

Obviously anyone who is complaining about planetary overpopulation hasn't driven I-80 from Utah to Nebraska. There's nothing out there.

Coal, natural gas, and water for California. About half of the water in the Colorado River, which is down to a trickle by the time it gets to Mexico, comes from Wyoming. Billions of cubic feet of natural gas per day move through pipes to Nevada and California markets. Wyoming is the #1 coal producing state by a fairly wide margin.

Sorry to hear about the asshat ATM thieves, Shottlebop.

Watser? · #**1261** 03-02-2008, 12:45 PM

Good news Stormlight! :larrybounce:

Shottlebop, that sucks

I had my debit card stolen once but they only stole 200 euro from my account and the bank paid it back to me in the end (or their insurance did).

Stormlight · #**1262** 03-02-2008, 01:03 PM

The banks always pay in these cases. They are terrified of possible lawsuits that might expose a general security problem with credit cards.

Watser? · #**1263** 03-02-2008, 01:05 PM

Take it from the banker, Bop :unnod:

#**1264** 03-02-2008, 01:12 PM

Yay for benign! :hug:

I don't know about Air Force, but in the Army, the signature scavanger hunt is when you leave base.

I remember last time I was in Knox, the class was preparing to leave post, and we were driving all over the base. We'd flag each other down at intersections as we recognised cars and ask each other "Have you found the Provost Martial's office?" or "Where the hell is the MWR Recreational Vehicle Storage Lot?" About thirty places we needed signatures from, and we didn't even know most of them existed.

Thank the gods, Stormie. :manhug:

What a relief, Stormy. Squeezles to you and the missus. :glomps:

ShottleBop · #**1271** 03-02-2008, 03:42 PM

Congrats on "benign", Stormlight.

This wasn't even a credit card: just an old-fashioned ATM card that REQUIRES a PIN. Since Mrs. ShottleBop and I both had our cards with us (the last of the withdrawals occurred while we were a couple of hundred miles away), I'd want the bank to explain why it gave OUR money to an unauthorized third party.

JamesBannon · #**1273** 03-02-2008, 06:29 PM

for benign :storm:

Qingdai · #**1274** 03-03-2008, 06:14 AM

I am glad to hear about Ms. Stormlight's benign diagnosis!

Caligulette · #**1275** 03-03-2008, 06:19 AM

Hooray for Mrs Stormlight! :bgirl:
