evil bank policy to be aware of
lets say you have 3 dollars in the bank, just as an example.
First you make an electronic purchase for 50 cents,
then the same day you make a purchase for 1.50,
then you make a purchase for 2.99.
oops.
that last transaction is going to have an over draft fee.
wrong. the first two transactions are going to have the fee.
two fees for one overdraft. This is because the bank (all banks) have a policy of clearing the largest transactions first regardless of when they actually occured within the space of a day a weekend or a holiday weekend. so you might have one overdraft multiply into 3 or 4 fees. so in the above example, what your checkbook ledger (which you must have located after the mentioned purchaces) would read:
3.00
2.50
1.00
(1.99)oops
the bank writes it in as:
3.00
0.01
(1.49)ha!
(1.99)haha!
(31.99)yeah!
(61.99)sucker!
the end

China wants to make love to Jon Stewart.
Jon stewart is to host the Oscars, and China Cares.
They like Jon Stewart because he makes fun of president Bush's policies on The Daily Show, but if you look at this file photo, that the state-run news agency uses in stories that refer to Jon Stewart. You can see that China also thinks he's pretty dreamy hot.
