How to lose a credit card in ten days. The sequel of the sequel of the sequel of the other two bits.

So yeah. Like Emeril, I’ve decided to kick it up a notch. Take it to the next level. Of course, if I keep doing that, I’ll end up robbing banks with a sharpened credit card. It’s true, kids. Don’t fool around with credit cards. You heard me.

Today, a personal message to one of my friends:

You may not know him, but he’s the Big Hot. And he’s Joshewah. And he didn’t ask me to do this - so it’s just like flowers for no reason!

Okay, I’m scaring myself.

Anyways, here’s what I like to see as an “open casting call”, and also a way for my beloved audience to get their hands on some of the action, if only vicariously, like watching an exciting movie about credit cards and the daring, heart-stopping adventures of the people who own them.

If you have a good idea for what I should do with my Mastercard and a pen, and that something isn’t origami, I’d absolutely love to hear from you.

    my suggestions:

    - a direct message to the cashier who is charging your card. 1st person speech.

    - in all-caps, the words “THIS IS NOT MY SIGNATURE”

    - as a spin-off of the first one, a request for a date with the cashier.

    - the Christian fish symbol.

    - a smiley face.

    have fun! :)

    ok…I work in retail. We have a customer who has some interesting ‘conspiracy theories’ when it comes to identity theft (most of the time I don’t get what he is saying because he mumbles alot…and flails his hands around…strange) anyhow, I asked my boss what to do about him because he changes his sigi everytime he comes in, and she said that when this happens the bank calls and confirms that the card was ’swiped’ and not keyed in by hand…if it was Swiped, then it doesn’t matter too much, the store doesn’t loose out. However if the card is keyed in by hand and the sigi doesn’t match the bank, then we, as a store are out the money…therefor:

    You really need to demagnetize that baby…and maybe play ‘hangman’ (symbolic don’t you think?)
