The tivo people are AFTER me. The price is now down to $598. ARGH, the temptation. I don't NEED a couch, right?
I gave her everything... jewels, beautiful dresses -- with beautiful girls in them.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

They CAN, but it's lumpy and too small so their feet dangle off and it radiates heat like a bitch.
So your lumbar would be both out of wack and cooked.
But, hey, if you're into that kind of thing...we're not here to judge.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Nor can they record The Office on a couch.
Though it's a good place to sit while you watch the recording.

What you can do is catch your bank manager at a non-prime time. You almost certainly will be able to negotiate a reduction in overdraft fees, just because you went to the trouble of asking.
Thanks for all the info. Wow! That's...really shitty. Are they trying to increase revenue from feeds? Increase the amount of time they have access to funds? Why would anyone in their right minds living paycheck to paycheck open a checking account?
Also, what is non-prime time?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Yes and yes. Also, there's that nifty little thing where when you write a check - as soon as it is scanned in, the funds are taken from your account, even if the check won't actually post for a few days. I forget what it's called, but I was working at WF when that kicked in.
Mind, if you deposit a check, you don't get the funds for a few days (unless it's drawn on the same bank). But the funds are taken out of the paying account immediately.
Why would anyone in their right minds living paycheck to paycheck open a checking account?
Because it's increasingly harder to do anything without a checking account.

Also non-prime time: when the bank's not busy. Prime times usually are lunches, around 5 (if the bank stays open until 6), and paydays (Fridays, the first & last day of the month, the 15th).

We have two rabbits living in our backyard that Owen have named Fern and Thomas. And a chipmunk in our woodpile that he calls Paprika.

Agreed, but if you're paying upward of $100 for the privelage? I don't see how it's possible.
