Banking at Internet speed!

A couple weeks back, I sliced up my ATM card upon receiving a replacement in the mail. Except it wasn't a replacement for my ATM card, rather for a credit card issued by the same bank which I keep for emergencies and never, ever use. I determined this only after getting $200 from the ATM and having it show up on my account as a cash advance. (Complete with $10 fee, of which no mention was made during the transaction.)

So I went online and requested a replacement. The response read in part:
We have processed your request for a replacement card.
Please allow 710 calendar days for your new card to arrive
by US mail.
That was two weeks ago. But since my card isn't due to arrive before May 2012, I'm not a bit worried about it having gone missing in the mails. Until then, I guess it's back to getting money the old-fashioned way.

I was relieved to discover this wasn't anti-Mr. Cub song.
T- Bone Burnett? Sounds like the same guy who performed Elvis is Everywhere?

Same guy, but that guy isn't T-Bone Burnett, he's Mojo Nixon.

Also sings the little-known classic "Tie My Pecker To My Leg".
