Open Post: Hosted By A Stupid Reporter
Alternate title: Hosted By A Stupid Director Who Stupidly Ran The Wrong Stupid Tape.
And this reporter was totally that one ho in high school drama class who yelled at "LINE" at least 10 times during a 3-minute scene.
via SayOMG
it was only a couple hundred (if that?) british pounds, so no more than $400 at the time. my own bank wouldn't deposit it and wouldn't even help me deal with it. i was told on the phone by wells fargo that they would cash it for me at one of their main branches (in a "world trade center"), but then the people there had no clue what to do. i just stayed there and refused to leave till they figured out how to handle it!
really, it was kind of shocking. i wonder if i could have just gone to the airport and cashed it or something.
like i said...MAYBE things have improved since then, i hope.

the biggest pain in the ass was getting the check cashed. No bank wanted to deal with a check in foreign money ! seriously?! i thought we lived in modern times and all that. the rigamorole i had to go through was absolutely ridiculous. hopefully things are better now for you, uvy.

Do you mean cashed or deposited. I could understand them not wanted to cash a 5 or 6 digit check but not a problem with depositing it, unless it's over $10K because the government can get nosey.* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

I think its funny that people spend time debating if that is really MK or not. How is their life going to change for the better or worse either way? :)
Very true. I think sometimes people get attached to certain habits because there is something comforting about tuning in to a favorite television show or radio station or in this case, a blog. For laughs, dlisted is hard to beat. There is a blogger I read/lurk-mode-only who has a fan-base of people who constantly complain that he's using a stand-in writer and it cracks me up. Can't please all of the people all of the time. Oh well. :)

Guys, on the phone with my friend...what is the name of that site that has all those horrible foods like fried butter and stuff?

LOL at the Michael K. ghost blogger conspiracy theory. Honestly, I think M.K. would post with his toes if his hands got mangled in some random accident because he's that damned dedicated to his craft. Hell, he even does posts when he is supposed to be on vacation. Definitely one of the most committed, hard-working bloggers on the 'net. There are days when there is no way in hell I could even attempt 'funny' little lone be coherent and yet M.K. manages to do just that about every day. That's talent.
-end rant-
OAKLAND, Calif. – As crestfallen followers of a California preacher who foresaw the world's end strained to find meaning in their lives, Harold Camping revised his apocalyptic prophecy Monday, saying he was off by five months and the Earth actually will be obliterated on Oct. 21.
So don't stop sending those donations in, folks.

WTF is going on with comments lately? Now there's the MK ghostwriting conspiracy bullshit starting again, and that's so lame and stupid. I hate that shit. Kid can't be off once, or he'll have the loonies claiming he's not writing. People need to shut the fuck up.
UGH.

I appreciate the fair warnings. I actually have a check in my posession and have started researching the bank that drafted it and the lawyer that signed it. Since it's out of country I'm sure they can't send someone to my door with a briefcase full of moolah. :)
All I have to do is sign the receipt they enclosed that says I will accept the money and not try to claim further from the estate and trust. Still going to wait for one of my mother's brothers to verify the relation, plus I'd imagine they would also be written in the will if my mother was.

Evil loboutins,
I like hockey too. But I iz USA. You guys got the real hockey players. When i FB half my shit I usually get no love, so that's normal. Your team make it to the finals or something?

ISMU, woot! Enjoy, congrats! But do not give out any "confirmation/validation" shit over the phone whatever, but you know that. If it is a real inheritance, the shit is usually delivered by an attorney/bank escrow person (that's how my grand aunt's shit came through early last year for the fam). Either way, awesomenessess to you and yours, girl.

Is it just me or is Natalie Portman taking a Mariah-esque amount of time to give birth ?? She seemed fairly big during awards season...
I was JUST talking to hubby on phone and he was working a case (he's a state trooper) where a guy from Norway overpaid for a drumset here on states by 3
grand. So he asks guy that sold drums to send back the overpayment and keep an extra hundred for the trouble. By the time the check bounced there was nothing that could be done. The u.s. will not extradite for a misdemeanor.

Uvy, I hope that shit is real girl! If it were me though, I'd stick it in a separate bank account with like 5 bucks in it and wait 6 or more months for it to bounce. Seriously, it takes a LONG ass time for that shit to catch up and bounce...

Uvy- I hope this works for you, but my mother in law got an email from some distant relatives saying some relative had died in the Netherlands (where her parents were from) and since all other relatives were deceased, etc, she should call her uncle to verify so she could get her check...
********
There are scams like that but if Uvy can verify that the lawyer in Ireland is legit that should help. She should also get a copy of the will if she can. If it was an email from a "relative" she'd never met, I'd be a lot more sus.
We get scam emails all the time at the law firm I work at. Mainly from Africa and Asian countries. They claim to have been awarded a large cash settlement but they've only received part of it, and the payor lives in our jurisdiction. They want us to chase down the "rest" of the settlement monies on their behalf. I presume that the outcome for them is that the *payor* gives us a bogus cheque in certified funds for thousands of bucks as the rest of the cash settlement, which we deposit in our trust fund, and we write the client a cheque and our trust fund is lighter by a lot of money.

Hey, some of you guys were discussing a "push-gift" earlier. What is that, exactly? Like getting a gift you forced someone to give you? If so, how can I do this? ;^)
