May's Ask Al

Time for the monthly installment of Ask Al. I'm your host Al Borland.

Lets get to that mail bag. First question from Ever Heard of A Debit/Credit Card in Fairfax, VA. He asks " Are their really people out there who don't have the concept of what a Debit or Credit Card is?"

We Ever Heard, unfortunately yes. I just happened to get stuck behind a moron like that. I was at the local Wegmans getting my weeks worth of groceries. The lady in front of me decided that she wanted to buy out Wegmans (about a $300 bill). Of course she her information is a little off and the 6 forms of id that she needs for a check are just taking forever to get straight. So the manager comes over about twice. Meanwhile I start a conversation with the other unlucky sole behind me about well the 21st century and things called credit or debit cards. It was like those Visa or Mastercard commericals where the place is running smoothe until some yutz decides to pay with cash or a check. Remember folks checks are meant for paying rent and bills, not food at your grocery store.

I wish we had more time, but since this fool decided to kill my time with a check I'll have to cut this months segment a little short.

Thanks for watching this months Ask Al, I'm Al Borland for This New House.
