My family has wired me money before, which is cool--they have my deets. I don't know this chick my sister is having send money--it costs me less to receive international wires than her. But I don't want her to have all my stuff, since I don't have an alternate address like you do.
BofA tells me:
Email setup is complete
Friends and family can now use your email address to send you money.
But that's not the most helpful thing in the world...can a personal Swiss account leverage this? I'm missing the part with the instructions for my friends and family...
Man, why doesn't everyone just have Paypal (in this scenario it's also free for everyone--I'm not sure of the profit structure yet)?
Dad said to say hi to the invisible buffista people.
Aww, hi to Dad. I am glad he loves your tattoo. It's really beautiful.
I showed it to Mom tonight and she really liked it too.
Courtesy of Matt Ruff: Per last week's "another think/thing coming" debate: Do you say "soft-pedal" or "soft-peddle"?
It's the pedal on the left on a piano, it muffles and softens the sound of the hammers striking the strings. The one on the right is the sustain pedal, it, well, sustains the note or notes. I forget what the center one does, if I ever knew.
We know where toe the line and jump the gun come from, right?
Pedal. "Peddle" always looked wrong though I couldn't explain why. But thanks to Bev, now I can. Cool!
Think 'foot race' smonster!
IMHO, 'tickled pink' means embarrassed in a nice way so that you blush.
In the movie "far and away" , in the boxing scenes, they drew a chalk line on the floor and a little boy screamed "toe the line" and the boxers were not supposed to step over it toward each other. The kid was played by the kid who played Crutchy in Newsies. Not sure how accurate it was.

That's new to me. I've always used it to mean chuffed. Utterly delighted. Nothing to do with embarrassment at all.
