:p We already talked about this! If all goes according to plan I'll see you in August :)

Want me to ship the S&M stuff to Skoorb then?
Also send along the 8mm film, cause snuff just isn't the same in digital.

:p Tickets from Detroit rock city to Bham are $276 :( I'll wait till I get a companion ticket down to ATL for under $100. Then we can meet. $276 is too rich for Gobies' blood.

So you had money to go to europe, when you weren't working, and now that you are you can't drop $276 to visit Skoorbie, even though you have PLENTY of money for new electronics toys? Oh, I know where your priorities are.

LOL don't be like that Shmabblety poo! I took a loan out from the parents for that and I paid them back. I haven't paid money for any electronics this year! I'm trying to save up for a house so you have some where to stay when you come visit ;)

The biggest issue I have is that I have no damn vacation this year. I'm already down to only 2 days left :(

I opened up an account at Bank One and they gave me an additional credit card. What the heck should I do with it? Just put it away and never use it? It also happens to be the card with the highest limit.

Long story short they more than doubled my available credit line. I had 1 card with $4000 and one with $1300. The new card is for $6000. Should I just cancel the card? Just let it sit open and not use it? Should I make a couple minor purchases with it every now and then? I want to buy a house in a year or so and I want to make sure my debt/credit ratio is good. I'm not quite sure how it all works though.
Yay! I just got a card from Bank One, which saved me from having to call them. I thought their service was subpar anyway. Apparently, they're no longer Bank One. Bank One merged with Chase. The new name is Chase. Chase offered me credit cards in the past, but I always declined. So it's a pleasure to finally get to experience their service.


:confused: Why did you feel the need to bump this old thread? :p Oh well... as long as you have the card... buy me something nice!
Now I remember why I bumped it, besides to announce the change in name. Chase is offering 0% fixed APR for 6 months for new purchases, as a gesture for existing customers of Bank One. I am so excited! I just wish the sellers on the website that I bid on took credit cards. :(

P.S. Hey, are you kidding me? You make more than I do, even in tax return! ;)
