We stopped at a random bank to get $Many bills broken into $1s, $2s, and $Manys, bank on it man.

Poor staff recognized us as our POTS Business Typhoon self, uh-oh man.

They found a red carpet and struggled to unroll it for us, standard bank procedure man.

We gently explained our visit's simple purpose, diplomatically clarify we man.

Branch Manager & all Assistants burst into tears, no POTS funds for deposit man.

We said, "Maybe this will change in the future, not planned but have faith man," soothing we man.

We got our bills from heavily genuflecting teller and had Jeeves drive us away fast, embarrassing man.

We must camouflage ourself better in the future, obviously not a casual consideration man.

Experienced Nola-B. ma'am!  Experienced, EXPERIENCED Nola-B. ma'am!

We note that the University of Poland conveniently offers "P-Math I," "P-Math II," and "P-Math Many" by postal mail, golden opportunity Nola-B. ma'am. 

No more math for me!

 

This summer is pathophysiology and some basic/boring medical terminology one. 

 

I'm still debating the fall ones. I'm holding the idea of applying to both PA and med school in the back of my mind.  One I'm looking at gives high preference to local candidates already working in rural medicine...  In any case, I think I'd need Chem II and O-Chem.

so you get the card for 1 year, then cancel. Like I did :) 

Oh man I dunno how many cards I did that with. 

Apple, Amazon, Walmart, etc....

 

I'd feel weird doing that.

So, in Denmark, unless you pay a high fee, almost all packages are delivered to the local post office or those drop boxes with a key. Even when they do door delivery, they won't leave it unless you are home, so you end up having to go and collect it anyway. They also don't pick up outgoing mail.  🙄

 

I would suspect a box like that might be easy to break into, though? And the packages it takes are small?

1- man Denmark sucks!

 

2- <shrugs> the idea is to make it not so easy. I figured most of the packages will fit in that sucker. They have heavier duty ones, but they're like a thousand bucks. When I move, I'll get one of those...

I only cancel the ones with a fee. The rest of them, I just don't use them, after like a few years of inactivity, they just close the account. No harm. Believe me they make plenty of money from the merchants already.

Now, I gotta figure out how to bank 4 round trip tickets to Italy for next year, and 6 round trip tickets to Orlando for 2021. 

If I can get free flights, I'd be happy...

 

It is cheap from NY, so no complaining. 

 

Whatcha going to Italy for?

The ###### nanny is so ##### stupid. I don't know how many ###### times I told her, don't open the ####= door with the dog standing there. He'll bolt and bite. So, what does she do? Open the door with him standing there, of course. 

He ran out and bit the fed ex guy. I swear she's ###### re###fed....

Well, you know I live in Dyker Heights. So I have a lot of Guinea friends. And they all have houses in Italy. But mostly in Sicily.

But my boat mechanic friend, they're in Rome. He and his wife, they're getting older, and soon will stop travelling. They wanted us to go visit them over there before they're too old. 

Tiff and the kids never seen Europe, so...off we go to Taliban land...

Is the Fedex guy alright? One of my neighbor's (which one, I have no idea) dogs jumped into my front seat today, and left muddy footprints all over.

Awwww, that should be fun! I'm kind of surprised that Tiff hasn't been before you guys had kids.

Hey it ain't that cheap. With luggage fees I think it was around 1800-2000 when we went in 2017. 

But it was premium coach. 

 

 

Per person? Because it is $2000/person for regular coach from here without driving to a bigger airport.
