So I get into my apartment today after a month off school and check my banking online and 300 bucks is charged to my account. WTF? So I call the bank and now I dont get a card for 3-5 days. Oh well, I guess I dont have to pay the phone bill, my books, or caliper rebuild kits... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/finger.gif)

Hey, shawn green's departure means 8 mil left in salary. I may be pissed about the credit card, but not about this move. I think its a move in the right direction to unload a 260 hitting first baseman. Plus, we need a player who's willing to play on jewish holidays (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

I once had my business credit card stolen. I noticed it was missing but thought maybe I had left it at the office or at home, whatever. At this point I think that I have simply mislaid the card.
A few days later I go in to the bank to tell them I must have lost the card and they are all business until they bring up the account. You could watch the crooks traveling via the credit trail. Gas Station, Gas Station, Gas Station, suite at the Bellagio LAS VEGAS Casino, casino cash advance, cash advance at a different casino, cash advance at a different casino. All said and done over $12,000.00 worth of charges and cash advances. I filed all the paperwork with the bank and the local sherriff's office (where it seemed I was the number one suspect) but in the end I was cleared and the bank only held me liable for the first $50 (since it was a business card they didn't have to do that). I checked up several times but I suppose since the bank settled it to their insurance the Sherriff's office dropped the matter. No one ever caught, no court date, nothing. Who says crime doesn't pay? |

That's a contradiction in terms...each fan/team hates each other with a passion..... BTW, Giants blow..... Definition of a CA mixed marriage....Hubby a Dodger fan and the poor unaware wife who likes the Giants because their uniforms are "cute"....
