How bad is the economy getting?....... by me........V

Well, you asked for it :)

Got a bill from BofA for a safety box that my attorney closed down for me eight years ago.

Bill from from a collection "Popular Mechanic" that was paid for two years ago, I told them that if they
wanted copies of the checks that it would cost them $5.00 per check plus .042 cents for
the stamp.

One from "Popular Science" $12.00 for one year, send payment right away...but............
at the lower left hand corner in really small letters...this is not a request for payment.

Two places cought fire in my town and two more closed down.....and I really don't
understand this....the pawn shop was one of them.

One guy at the corner in town with a sign "Will do anything for $10.00 an hour"

At the community bulletin board at the grocery store "24 years old female and a hard worker
will do yard work"

After being in business for 5 years here, had a perspective client comeback and tell us our materials were 81% higher in estimated cost than a competitor.

Obviously he was either being fed a complete line of bullshit, or someone has a boat load of material they're thinking of taking a huge loss on.
