Hmm. So far, seems a lot like 2007.

And 2006, 05, 04, 03, 02, 01...

However, New Years Resolutions this year for good old Shortwave are
pretty easy.

1 - I resolve to immediately start writing 2008 on all checks instead
of 2007. Normally, it takes me until July to finally write the new
year instead of the old year.

That's it - the only resolution.

Ok, maybe one more.

2 - I resolve not to deal with morons thing year.

That about does it.

So this is 2008...

I actually wrote a check at the fish market yesterday. The damned
electronic checkcard/creditcard gizmo was not working. I keep a check in
my wallet. It was as dog-eared as that foil-wrapped Trojan condom we
used to keep in there in our teens in the hope we'd get lucky.

So this is 2008...

Where can we line up to shake your hand and say goodbye?

As to checkwriting, about the only time I do it now is to give the kids a
present. VISA is used for just about everything. Now COX will accept
payment with a VISA card. As the VISA rebates 1.25 % on everything and 5%
on gas, that's a pretty good deal. Yesterday, for the first time, I
realized that VISA is putting 'year to date' rebates on the bill. So far
this year - over $700 in rebates.

Now if only I could use the VISA card to pay the VISA bill!

Allow me to add this one:

3 - I resolve to burn as much fossil fuel as possible in as wasteful
way as possible so that I can increase my personal carbon footprint to
the size of a small country in Europe to make up for all the morons
who are decreasing their carbon footprint thus increasing the rain
forests and creating a healthy environment for the growth of trees and
vegetables.

Another difference between a Debit card and a Credit card becomes apparent
if
you want to dispute a charge. Using a debit card is the same as writing a
check
or using cash. You will never see that money again, no matter what if
something
is wrong with the transaction. The bank sure isn't going to go get it back
for
you. With a credit card, you at least "may" be able to get it back.

Another feature of most credit cards is that manufacturer's warrantees are
doubled within limits.

So this is 2008...

Which is a great feature. Daughter bought a new surfboard. The condo
garage was broken into and her new board was one of the items taken. No

I see your point, but my bank visa debit card does give me rebates too
in case I was not clear above. I do however use "my" money sooner my
way.

Another difference between a Debit card and a Credit card becomes apparent if
you want to dispute a charge. Using a debit card is the same as writing a check
or using cash. You will never see that money again, no matter what if something
is wrong with the transaction. The bank sure isn't going to go get it back for
you. With a credit card, you at least "may" be able to get it back.


That's a good point. I've disputed the same charge from the same VOIP
company for three months in a row now. They keep charging, even though I've
canceled the service and have an email to prove it. The VISA folks keep
giving me the credit for the charge.

Hmm. So far, seems a lot like 2007.

And 2006, 05, 04, 03, 02, 01...

However, New Years Resolutions this year for good old Shortwave are
pretty easy.

1 - I resolve to immediately start writing 2008 on all checks instead
of 2007. Normally, it takes me until July to finally write the new
year instead of the old year.

That's it - the only resolution.

Ok, maybe one more.

2 - I resolve not to deal with morons thing year.

That about does it.


What's a "check"?

Eisboch



I actually wrote a check at the fish market yesterday. The damned
electronic checkcard/creditcard gizmo was not working. I keep a check in
my wallet. It was as dog-eared as that foil-wrapped Trojan condom we
used to keep in there in our teens in the hope we'd get lucky.

Pure narcissistic BS.

So this is 2008...

Not that. The CC machine wasn't working? Bull****. He will find any
stupid reason to be a part of a topic.
