I forgot a funny part about the DMV incident: So I go into the little office where I pay the receipt for property taxes, and there's this sign that says they don't take credit OR debit cards. I probably haven't written a real check in a year, but now I'm thinking I'll have to go home to get out my old check book. Yes, the woman says smiling, we take checks. But I get outside and think, hey, I'll just get cash. That's as good as money, right?
I go to an ATM, get the cash, go back to the office, and the woman smiles and says, "Welcome back!" She's nice, so I say "Hi--you do take cash right?"
She waits a beat, then: "Oh, no, sir. We only take cards here."
I'm like, what. "You take cards here. But I was just here and you said you don't take cards, so I went out and..."
And she cracks up. They was messing with me man! They got me good, too.
