I know when I get my loan checks (which are written to me and my dad), we have to go through this whole thing...His signature and driver's license has to be on file, and it has to be current. But, those are for large checks...so, I have no idea for smaller.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Actually, that's not true, at least here in MA.
Oh, really? I've never had a problem depositing things written out to DH and I (tax refunds etc) - didn't realize it varied by state.

I thought a lot of it depended on whether it had an and or an or between the names. In many places "and" means both have to sign. "Or" means either can sign. That, I think, varies bank to bank, not so much state to state.

Checks are commercial paper, and most states follow Article 3 of the Uniform Commercial Code, but the states can make changes.
And with that, I may have just exhausted my commercial paper knowledge, the little that was still stuck in my head.

Yeah, I'm not really sure it's a state thing. I'm not sure what it is. All I know is that cashing those damn checks are a pain in the ass. But, I don't want my dad's name on my account so that once a year my life is easier. So, we just deal with it.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
wtf is up w/ people? when the sign says don't block the intersection and i stop so i'm not blocking the intersection, do not pull around me and then look incredulous when i honk at you.
Much strength, peace, coping, healing-ma etc for ND and family.
Now I will go look at Ceiling Cat Kerfuffle Bunny.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I think Hil's been taking trapeze classes in Baltimore for a while now, off adn on. They sound awesome and fun, but she's said they use crazy muscles and make her very sore afterward!
Yep. I'd love to do it more often, say once a week or so, but it's $50 per class, then another $20 for transportation, and pretty much takes up an entire day, once I factor in the transportation time. So, I've been going about once every two or three weeks. (Also, it's outdoors, so they only run during the summer.)
