No. The woman that waited on me, biscuit eater, had a low cut top- so i just let her keep her eyes on my cash as she counted so i could look more. complimented her hair-do and left.

Maybe i should have asked, but I bet I'd get some corporate doublespeak that just would have pissed me off more.

Some of those typos can be quite lucrative. Like Don "No Soul" Simpson, you should turn your affliction into a successful career.

I like this turn of phrase (though I am not religious and not so sure about the whole "soul" thing)

"The thoughts and prayers of everyone in this building are with Tony and (wife) Lauren, their children and their extended family, and for the repose of James' soul."

Did you think he was like Don "No Soul" Simmons?

It is about 16 degrees this morning. I need to stop at the bank, and I got there at 10 minutes to 9. I try the door, because I can see all the people in there already. It's locked- and several look up and see me. I was left standing in 16 degrees until 9:01 when they finally opened.

Where the fuck is personal service or curtesy? I could see one women sipping coffee and eating a biscuit- others joking with each other- it's not like they were doing anything that would prevent them from letting me in. No secret cash counts or anything.

I stood, breaths huge clouds of smoke looking in at the sitting area, with several comfortable chairs. Why not let me in- they could ignore me until 9:01- just let me the fuck in.

And this was one of those supposed "personal service" banks for larger accounts. Fuck.
It's 66 and sunny here. I may have erred in wearing a sweater, esp if I want to walk to the mall at lunch.

It's sunny here too, but considerably colder than 66.

The upshot is that I've already had lunch -- Suckah!

Take off the leg warmers and you should be fine.

(sigh). There was every food imaginable there, including potato pancakes and a kosher table. Something for everyone. There were even collard greens, which is unusual at a law firm lunch. Also delicious. I love every green of the steamed variety.
