[SAT 9,609]

This is the second one she lost. The first one, she said, "I've had that fish since I won him at the feast when I was 4 years old".

She relates everything to her age. How old she was when she did that, how old she was when she got that, etc...

[SAT 9,609]

Frustration.

So I stopped by a fly by night bank, where I've deposited 2 checks a month for 15 years or so. Business account. The teller tells me that she can't take the check because it read "one thousand hundred dollars".

I said, look at the digits box, it reads "1,100". I've been depositing this check for years. She refused. Ok fine, I look for the manager, manager isn't there. I have 2 choices, call the person that wrote the check, and wait for her to mail me another one. Or, go over to Citibank, deposit into non business account.

Now, this is what I call personal banking. I go to Citibank, show the branch manager the check, with the back already endorsed with the other bank's account number. And it was accepted for deposit.

Tomorrow, I'm going to get a hold of the other bank's manager and see what they're gonna do for me before I close that account...

In my journeys, I've learned that, it only takes 1 bad experience to lose a customer forever.

I didn't get a postcard from Trophie, did you guys?

I didn't, did you?....

Stamps are so expensive in Denmark right now that Danish people have stopped sending snail mail, so no, no postcards.

Oh yeah, they have to collect the Taliban tax...

The other day, my kid hosted a few of her buddies in the little pool, and we ran out of towels.

Because I have exactly 5 towels left in the house. Why do I have 5 towels left in the house? I asked myself that too!

So, I asked tiff, what happened to our hundreds of towels?? She said, they got old and they're not that white anymore, so I threw them out. I'm like, you ever heard of bleach?

Now, we don't use cheap towels (like Tark). But now she thinks towels are disposable...

More importantly, we need towels now, and don't have them...

<sigh>

My daughter's goldfish died. She's devastated lol...

Kiddo was devastated when her betta died.

[SAT 9,609]

They also spotted a great white and other sharks around here. I'd go pull a chief Brody on it if it wasn't so windy...

But shark trips are rough...

I always hated driving over the Tappan zee. That thing is a death trap.

[SAT 9,609]

Yeah me too. I always avoid it and take the GWB. Or go across Staten island.

The Little Dane will not freaking stop climbing up on the dining room chairs and onto the table. He hates being locked behind the gate in the living room, but he doesn't seem to get the connection of "I climb on the chairs and mommy removes me from the room". I'm about ready to pull my hair out.

See below, see ma'am...

Why, the little turtle does the same thing. And she dunno why she's in "jail" either.

Mini-B.'s similar activity used to drive Mrs. T-B. nuts, too. Then, one day, we were at a play-area in a mall, watching Mini-B. jump around. A young mother soon sat down with her little boy of about the same age... and he was in a wheelchair with a feeding-tube. Ever since then, when Mini-B. is acting like a wild man and driving Mrs. T-B. bananas, we look at her and say "Feeding-tube," and she regains perspective immediately, si and sigh man.

I didn't get a postcard from Trophie, did you guys? I didn't, did you?....

Bad Nola-B.! Bad, BAD Nola-B.!

My daughter's goldfish died. She's devastated lol...

Little Timmy was in the garden filling in a hole when his neighbor peered over the fence. Interested in what the cheeky-faced youngster was up to, he politely asked, "What are you up to there, Timmy?"

"My goldfish died," replied Timmy tearfully, "and I've just buried him."

The neighbor was concerned. "That's an awfully big hole for a goldfish, isn't it?"

Little Timmy patted down the last heap of earth and then replied, "That's because he's inside your cat."

This is the second one she lost. The first one, she said, "I've had that fish since I won him at the feast when I was Many years old".

She relates everything to her age. How old she was when she did that, how old she was when she got that, etc...

Mini-B. does the same, wee man. In addition, everything is relative, Einstein man. He is Many years old; Mrs. T-B. is Many+1 years old; and we are Many-1 years old, precisely man. He says, "Daddy, you're only Many-1 years old, so you don't know," opinionated wee man.

This is the problem in Many'rd-World countries like Ciudad de Nueva York, see man. By contrast, in Poland, the check would have read "$Many," and the teller would have said, "This check reads '$Many,'" and you would have agreed, and the deposit would have been rapid and uneventful, see man.

If the Danes are that cheap, we respect them highly, si man.

Because I have exactly Many towels left in the house. Why do I have Many towels left in the house? I asked myself that too!

So, I asked tiff, what happened to our Manys of towels?? She said, they got old and they're not that white anymore, so I threw them out. I'm like, you ever heard of bleach?

Now, we don't use cheap towels (like Tark). But now she thinks towels are disposable...

More importantly, we need towels now, and don't have them...

There are so Many things wrong with this picture, , man.

First, never buy or use white anything, no man.

Second, if you patronized GSs & ESs, you'd have Manys of high-quality towels, excess man.

Many'rd, why didn't Tiff donate the towels, for a tax writeoff or to a homeless shelter, huh man?

Many'th, when are you going to wise up and apply for your Malaysian Embassy Refund, huh man?

I always hated driving over the Tappan zee. That thing is a death trap.

Didn't Tappan Zee build microwave and conventional ovens, huh man?

If Mrs. T-B. ever simply threw out anything that could be donated for a tax writeoff, we'd kick her shapely hindquarters straight back to Ecu (and call the Rubias), grrr man.

[TBoneTX 45,865]

We just opened our linen closet and counted only the bath towels, Algebra man.

Just those in plain view number Many (2x2x2x2x2+1), see them man.

An estimated Many more (2x2x2+2+2) are buried, addition man.

Probably Many more (2x2x2-1) are currently in use, addition man.

If postage in Denmark weren't so expensive, we'd ship you a few, generous pity man.

As it is, we will send you one free for each pre-owned toilet seat that you order, special offer man.

Limited-time offer! Available to the first Many who call within the next Many minutes, si man!
