    A few years ago I was in dispute with a major bank over whether they could unilaterally change a contract I had with them. I referred the case  to a major national newspaper who actually agreed with me and printed several articles about it. Basically they had referred me to a certain paragraph/subsection of the signed agreement that simply did not exist. The case was taken up by the financial authorities who ruled that the bank's response after having it pointed out that there was no such paragraph in the contract ........."It was in the agreement, but it just wasn't printed as there wasn't enough room on the page..."  was within the law !!

     

    Did you then point out the other "unprinted" area that said your account would earn 200% interest?

    betty ford, really?  How old are you!?

    Old enough to remember when rolling two fours with dice was called "windows."  Rolling two fives was called "t!ts in a window" and a four with a five was called "Betty Ford in a window!" ?

  3. Please note that I was able to fulfill the request!  As you'll notice below, all seven transparent red lines (including the green, the balloon and the kitten) are all perpendicular to each other!  It looks even better than I expected it would, the customer should be very happy!

    I've seen a development request with a hand-drawn sketch and the immortal words "like this, but better".

    Heh, when I was a consultant to Verizon Wireless (their current name, they went through several during the seven years I was there), we were shown a "feature" that a competitor came up with (Cingular's text messenger) and told the same thing! ?
