HA!!! I'm only giving you sh*t because I can. I have actually laid off the beer BIGTIME and really don't experiment at all. Enjoy The Beast some day. Ya want to pay me back? Check out one of the bands I feature in my 'zine and buy their disc. I would recommend Willie Phoenix for you and his Quick N Dirty CD. He's a great guy, and his stuff rocks.

Tell him I sent you his way and he will be super cool to you. Oh, but you will have to say "Carl from Sonic Ruin", as he doesn't know me as Kid Gleason. Heh.

Ah well, that's the only time I write checks (my above example). I never have checks in public.

 

Landlord..but even then, I might billpay it. I even bill pay my tithing sometimes.

 

Checks are ridiculous. I've seen some people who are on like check 11000.

 

yes, that means they've written 10,000 checks in their lifetime.

I love writing checks (and I'm still under 50!!! :headbang ).

I love checks because the tedium of having to write the check out keeps my impulse spending in check (bad pun intended).

If I had a check card, I'd have no time-consuming boring routine between me and the useless purchase.

Checks are my friend!!!

 

(But for all you eye-rollers out there, I prepare my check before I get to the register, so all I have to fill in is the amount. That takes about as long as swiping the check card, so LAY OFF!!!!!)

No me. I make sure the check is completely blank and then fill it out with the wrong hand...while I'm drunk. Then when the cashier tells me I have to re-do it, I make sure to make a scene.

So there was a tornado in the Elgin area a bit ago. So I'm in the car on I-90, in Elgin, driving home. This guy comes on WGN Radio and says he just saw it in Elgin near Randall Road and I-90...about 3 miles behind me (next exit) and moving East, same direction I am. Yeah, not fun.

Get back in the car and drive further east.

Vocational change might be happening soon.

 

Anyone in HR?

Nothing pisses me off more than seeing someone hold up the line by writing on a completely blank check.

 

You f***ing asshole/b****. You know the store is going to take your check, the date isn't going to change so the write the stuff out ahead of time and balance your damn book AFTER you leave the store. :stick

My hero :)

Weird.

 

Everyone writes checks here, especially at the grocery store. No one complains about it either.

Both Conan O'Brien and Craig Ferguson has the exact same joke about Barry Bonds last night: That he celebrated number 756 by injecting Champagne into his ass!

Expect to see Mencia doing it next week.

My sister almost died yesterday in a car crash in the Dan Ryan (103rd on Stoney Island mark). She's alittle shook up, but ok nonetheless.

Why does anyone who is under 50 still write checks?

 

The float.

 

I can't recall the last time I wrote a check.

I write checks to send in my car payment. 1 more to go and the title is mine!!

That's not a smart idea anymore. The 10/22 laws mean they can take money out of your account instantly, instead of when the bank is presented with the check.

Best Buy. My nephew has been on the Geek Squad for a few years, and just recently is the first time I've heard anything negative out of him about it.

 

I hate Circuit City though. I'm also not much of a sports guy...so what the heck do I know about Dicks?

I don't know what its like to work there, but, Dick's is an awful, awful store to shop at. I've been to multiple locations and they are constantly out of everything, their staff know little or nothing of the sport(s) they are selling equipment for, and they lack any serious outdoor gear.

 

Best Buy, at the corporate level, tried the ROW model recently (Results Oriented Workplace), and they are known for experimenting with new methods. Seems like a progressive organization. So that might be a good place.

 

Idiot of the day.

 

Who in their right mind, while driving intoxicated and on a suspended license, decides to try to run a person they know is a cop off the road?

 

:lolhitting

Um, call me crazy, but he's an idiot for just thinking it's O.K. to run anybody off the road, cop or not.
