TCB - I HATE those machines - I'm sure you'll get it all sorted out, but minimally if they know you made the deposit they should at least hold the checks until you've submitted your information and can verify it.

Oh, TCB. That's just awful. I refuse to put any money into those ATM machines because I just don't trust them.

I also don't trust making deposits into ATM machines.  I've heard way too many stories of amounts not getting posted to accounts.  Though everyone who I've heard this sort of thing has happened to did eventually get their money accounted for, it often takes filling out a claim and then waiting for a number of days.

Earlier this evening, I thought I would make a funny and I posted the following on All That Chat:

Taymor Forces Performers to Walk Thru Dangerously Snowy NYC Streets

Because of an iron-clad clause in their contracts, actors, dancers and stunt flyers in SPIDER-MAN:TURN OFF THE DARK are being forced to make their way through the snowy,slushy, slippery streets and sidewalks to appear in tonight's performance. Taymor is an insane tyrant to make such demands on these performers and to put them at such risks of injury.

Close this show down NOW!!!


I should have known better.  Evidently, if one does not use emoticons in one's satirical posts over there, most of the denizens do not realize one is joking.  Next time (if there is a next time), I'll supply a laugh track.

99% of the posters who frequent that board have not one humorous bone in their body - and the other 1% THINK they do (FJL excepted of course).

Financial vibes for TCB. I only trust the ATMs at branches of my bank. And I'm probably foolish for trusting those.

My favorite Email of the day:

THIS IS JUST AN INCREDIBLE STORY !!!!

 In 1986, Peter Davies was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from Northwestern University ..

 On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air.

 The elephant seemed distressed, so Peter approached it very carefully..

 He got down on one knee, inspected the elephants foot, and found a large piece of wood deeply embedded in it.

 As carefully and as gently as he could, Peter worked the wood out with his knife,

 after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot.

 The elephant turned to face the man, and with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense moments.

 Peter stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled.

 Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, and walked away.

 Peter never forgot that elephant or the events of that day.

 Twenty years later, Peter was walking through the Chicago Lincoln Park  Zoo with his teenaged son.

 As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and

 walked over to near where Peter and his son Cameron were standing.

 The large bull elephant stared at Peter, lifted its front foot off the ground, then put it down.

 The elephant did that several times then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man.

 Remembering the encounter in 1986, Peter could not help wondering if this was the same elephant.

 Peter summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing, and made his way into the enclosure.

 He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder.

 The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of Peter legs

 and slammed him against the railing, killing him instantly.

 Probably wasn't the same elephant.

PS

This is for everyone who sends those heart-warming bullshit stories.

 
LOL. I feel like spaming this to all those people you mention.

Just finished watching "Calamity Jane," which was a lot better than I thought it would be. Except, where was Ian McShane as Al Swearingen? And where was all the cursing I was led to expect from "Deadwood"?

I'm watching the the repeat of Oprah with the cast of "The Sound of Music."  There is a "special performance" from (four of) the great-grandchildren of Maria and Georg Von Trapp.  They sang a lovely, simple version of "Edelweiss."
