I just watched this weeks Tru Calling it was written by Jane Espenson this week. It's a good episode; I think she could have done some interesting things with the series.
Spike's Bitches 23: We've mastered the power of positive giving up.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I swear to god, when I was a teller, we checked things like signatures and if the person a check was made out to was a depositer on teh account it was deposited to.
Totally depends on the teller, in my experience with wedding checks made out to the DH and I. Some tellers wouldn't let me deposit checks that had an "and" between our names if the account was only in my name.
I learned to avoid those tellers, and, apparently, Sean's alter ego has, too!
Yikes, Sean. I hope it gets taken care of.
My (apparently totally misplaced) faith in modern banking is shattered.
Mine was shattered a long time ago when I learned that, with two or three simple steps, you could delay a check clearing by up to a week. (I do not recommend this as a way to handle your finances, btw.)
And I just got told by the mechanic fixing my car that my two front tires are bald with cords showing, and that I need an oil change.
I HAVE NO FUCKING MONEY FOR THIS! FUCKING NONE! I HAVE FOURTEEN MOTHERFUCKING DOLLARS IN MY GOD DAMNED ACCOUNT! WHY WON'T THE GOD DAMNED MOTHER FUCKING UNIVERSE LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE????????????

Yikes. That sucks.
You can put off the oil change. Be careful driving in the rain with tires like that. If your car is front-drive I suggest rotating the tires so the bad ones are on the back. (The typical front-drive car has 2/3 of its weight on the front tires, and since they do the driving, steering and most of the braking they wear out much faster. Plus I think a blowout on a rear tire is easier to handle.)
Because it is a cruel place. Oh, you didn't want an answer, did you? My bad, Minister.
Banks will apparently deposit anything they're handed
Yup they will - get this, I do not work for FedX BUT a customer sent our billing dept a ck made out to FedX for $10,000 (yes, $10,000) and not only did our billing people deposit it but the bank cleared it! Said customer = none too pleased.
Ack, Sean.
Fay! I was thinking of you yesterday - glad to hear you're all right, even though I was pretty sure that was the case.
Mwah! Yes, am fine and dandy.
