I think this depends on your level of imagination. When I read books there is definitely a play going on in my head of the events as they unfold.

I use a really thin non-folding wallet. Sometimes it’s in the back and sometimes I put it in the front pocket for more security.

I’ve seen some of the 4 inch thick wallets that people sit on. No idea how or why.

Oh won’t someone rid me of this meddlesome…

So the original comment is just dumb because they couldn’t be bothered to read the article, but upvotes it gets.

Wasn’t she arrested before they found the raccoon?

I was in Mexico for Cinco last year and they didn’t seem to give a shit. I asked if anything special was going on and they just laughed and said no.

Dear Customer:

This letter is in response to correspondence received regarding the account listed above.

It appears as if your correspondence’s purpose is to have Ameren Missouri relieve you of the financial responsibility of the balance due on your account. However, the “Accepted for Value” documentation you enclosed does not, in fact, relieve you of any financial responsibility to Ameren Missouri. This is a common scam cited by both the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the US Treasury and you are encouraged to visit their respective websites for more information. In particular, the US Treasury notes, in part, that, “Many of these schemes are variations of a common fraud generally known ‘redemption’ or ‘acceptance for value’ that incorrectly asserts the United States government has trust accounts linked to each citizen. The theory is not supported by fact or law and has been soundly rejected by the federal courts.” The US Treasury goes on to say that the use of language such as “accept for value” and other similar language “are without merit and establish no rights or privileges in any state account or agency.” Finally, the US Treasury states that, "These and similar documents are NOT valid negotiable financial instruments and recipients should NOT accept them or attempt to use them.

Customers of Ameren Missouri are obligated to pay Ameren Missouri for all service rendered on customer’s premises. Ameren Missouri is allowed to collect its own debt and provides a detachable slip with the monthly energy statement as a convenience for customers who mail in payments; this slip also ensures that incoming mailed payments are posted to the appropriate account. This is not a “coupon” that can be endorsed and returned as payment, as your correspondence suggests

We cannot accept the documentation you have provided in lieu of payment. It does not, and cannot, legally qualify as any form of legal payment towards your outstanding utility bills. We will not respond to any further attempts to make payment in this manner. You will be responsible for payment of the balance on your account, and failure to make these payments in a legally acceptable manner could lead to disconnection of

your service as well as collection action on your accounts. If you have questions regarding consumer rights and responsibilities, I encourage you to seek legal advice or contact federal, state or local consumer rights agencies for more information regarding the “Acceptance for Value” scam or other similar matters. If you need assistance paying your bill, please contact us at

Won’t that just make more concrete come out?

Without due process for everyone, no American person is ‘innocent until proven guilty’.

FTFY

It’s amazing how many people think you need to be a citizen of the US to have due process.

Until they replace it with a Trump statue

Maybe I’m OOTL, but what is the appeal to pay $100?

That’s what the marker lights are for not the headlights. Also if it’s a commercial plane as it sounds like it is traffic control and transponders kind of do that.

Which God? There are so many to choose from.

You could try emailing. If enough people do maybe he’ll pay attention.

Maybe I’m just used to looking up spec sheets but this is pretty standard.

NONE of the page is the “specifications” section

You may want to double check that. Actually, most of this page could have been left off if that’s all you were looking for.
