I long ago paid all the bills from my hip replacement surgery. I kept getting one bill from a radiologist for 33 bucks. I had called them months ago and I was told the final bill was some silly amount like $4.35 and I paid that. She said then that was all and the bill was paid. Then for the last two months I get a bill for $33. I figured it was easier to pay the stupid thing than spend several hours on the phone. If it was like Azzy's bill I would fight! .

Today they returned the check because my account was already paid in full. WTF! why did they send me a statement with a balance due? When I pay my bills my credit union mails a check if the payees don't accept electronic payment. Now I have a check made out to the radiologist that I need to deposit back into my own checking account. This is analog! I will have personally have to go to credit union and explain to them to put the money back in the account.

Grumble grumble. Stupid analog checks. At least it is a deposit into my account.

I have met you and I have met many arseholes. You sir are not a arsehole. I am an expert! Anyone that feeds me BBQ, home brew beer and sends me off with a BIG bottle of home brew is not a arsehole.

Thanks again for that!

glen, i had a roommate that owed $1.00 to AT&T. how it was exactly that amount, i have no idea. our roommate insisted that he had paid the bill in full. AT&T kept calling the apartment. finally, after the umpteenth time i talked to these donuts, i asked to talk to a supervisor. i asked the supervisor how much the phone call and letters were costing them for that $1.00. the silence on the other end was deafening. he thanked me and we exchanged pleasantries. we didn't have another phone call about that particular bill.

I have been accused of being an *******, but since I am a whole ass the joke is on them. You figure Beth would have learned that by now

Okay since the granddaughter is still not too sure of me, I bought Bryers cookies and cream ice cream.
I am very popular right now

Nice pic Rick.

On the turps with my sisters and BILs. Hitting the beach shortly, then off to do some wine tasting. Should be fun.

Don't know what that first part is, but the chocolate part sounds good. Just add more of that.
