I must be on a roll. Thursday, I went into a local bank branch that accepts gas and water bill payments. I was on that end of town and decided to take care of it instead of doing the mail in check thing.

I walked up to the counter and a very sweet looking young lady asked if she could help me. Clowning around, I held up the gas and water bill for her to see, and then asked in a fake Forrest Gump tone of voice"
"Willl youua taka my moooooney?.

She grinned and answered "Sure I will sugar, just don't expect anything in return for it".

I should have quit there. But since she seemed to be enjoying the clowning, I told her I was concerned because
"I'm really in trouble, I'm really late, and I don't want to get cut off".

She started laughing, and said "My boyfriend is in the same boat, I'm late, and he has been cut off".

I could feel my face get red. So I just handed over the cash got a receipt, said thanks, and headed for the door. I thought about the conversation as I drove up the road. I felt bad for the guy whoever he is. Even with the "juice" turned off, he can't even take a "cold" shower.
