To the lady at Kinko's:
No, you can't fax us a photo to use in a death notice. It won't reproduce- just looks like a black blotch. And we need the text first, or along with the photo. We have nothing yet to attach the photo to.
Why do you keep repeating “I was given the wrong information”? Yes—yes, you were. And I just gave you the correct information. Now adjust your actions accordingly. Goodbye.

Pit Bull Puppies and, er...Accessories:
So this guy has an ad on hold, saying he’s going to send in the money. Calls & says why isn’t the ad running? Read him the notation. He says, no, I came in, in person and paid cash. A guy came down & got the money. Well, that’s possible, so after some checking with accounting ("Money? What money? We haven't got it!")... manager says let’s run his ad as a courtesy this one time, if we find the money, good, but if not he’s got the ad, he’s happy.
Well, along comes today, and what’s in the paper? A guy with same last name, slightly different first name, on same street, arrested along with 2 other people for possession of cocaine and associated drug paraphernalia. Yeah- this is why I hate taking ads for pit bull puppies. You never know if they're a legitimate owner/breeder or if they have a little side business going on. I've taken ads from some very nice people selling pit bull pups, who sound like responsible breeders. And then there's people like this guy.

And then there was the woman who sent an email with EIGHT attachments! Only TWO of which we actually needed for a death notice...text and photo. The others were: TWO COPIES of her "signature photo" - her own pic! WTF do we need that for? WTF does ANYBODY need that for? Two copies describing her job services (also not needed) and two blank attachments. Some people should just not be allowed to use email.
Also, the phrase, "I called and I couldn't get through" actually translates to: "I called at 30 seconds before your closing time and don't understand why I was on hold and then cut off."
