Back to the Grind

"That blows."
-my wife in response to asking me if it was really Monday, and not Thursday. It was really Monday.

So I received this among my daily barrage of spam today:

So I was about to post my Social, all my financial usernames and passwords, and the true identity of Night Rider to my blog when I realized that these guys can't even spell 'unsuccessful' correctly? What is up with that? First Wells Fargo can't seem to manage their teller/customer ratio, and now they can't spell.

All kidding aside, despite their weak attempt to boost savings accounts, Wells has always done me right. I give them 2 thumbs up. Now if they really want to impress me and gain some credible propaganda on this site, they should aim for 2 enthusiastic thumbs up!
