"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I wonder what kind of float that would make?

Green.

The bank wasted an hour and a half of my time yesterday with that same stupid thing, Pix. I deposited a check at an ATM and was waiting for the receipt with the picture of the check. Instead, the ATM screen said it couldn't print the receipt and then flashed to "Windows is shutting down." For obvious reasons, I was concerned about whether the deposit had gone through.

Then an amount less than the check showed up as a deposit. Usually when they hold something, online banking shows "X deposited, Y available," but it didn't. I called customer service, and the person said I had to go to the branch in person. Then I sat for an hour watching a bank person on hold. It turns out they had held part of the check. If he could find that out on the phone, why couldn't the customer "service" person?

After that, I stopped at Home Depot, where the person paying in front of me paid in ones.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I hate banks. I'm trying to decide which one to use down here, since my awesome credit union is only in NC. They do deposits first, then withdrawals, the fees are minimal, and you get two fee-free NSF days a year.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

I have to give my credit union some props. I had screwed up when making a deposit and keyed in 7.40 instead of 740.00. I realized my mistake the following day, after flying to California and just as K-Bug and I were leaving for the big drive. I called the credit union and within an hour they were able to credit the full amount to my account. Total gold star moment.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

What should I do with blueberries?

hip deep in pie

Pie!!!!

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Pie is always a good answer. If there aren't enough for that, pancakes would work.

There are many blueberries. I'm not making a pie crust, though. I will go buy a frozen crust.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Clafoutis! No crust.

Also, just eat them.

Ooh, or maybe a graham cracker crust. I could probably be talked into that.

If there is any way you qualify for USAA, do it. You need to be a former service member (spouse) or offspring of one, but they are really, really good.
