Checked my mail last night to see a check returned from my Credit Union I received from matchbook.
Was not a large amount <1000.
marked simply "Return Reason- S Refer To Maker"
"This is a legal copy of your check. You can use it the same way you would use an original check."
It's a BoA check, Account belongs to Webmaster checks. Along with a $10 return fee. WTF? I've never heard of anyone having this problem. Did my bank go out of it's way to screw with me? Do I call matchbook. Webmasterchecks?

I've found the best way to deposit offshore checks is the ATM. Depositing in person solicits questions and odd looks when they process the check. I am a little lucky that I'm on the US/Canadian border so the canadian checks are pretty common. A few years ago I received a handwritten check from an offshore that looked like a personal check 
If the option is there I always choose bankwire now. It's so much easier.

As for the Phillies, i think i bet on them like 3 or 4 times. I completely agree that they are not a good bet these days until the bats heat up. I am happy they are having a rough April (they do almost every year) because their lines were starting out a little heavier then i was hoping for. I am hoping they have some good value in May and can go on a roll, right now they are a hard team to predict.
I always wanted to see Pat Burrel and Howard race. Throw John Kruk in there, and it could be a hell of a long race. That contract they gave him is a strange one, the only thing i am thinking is that they gave it to him now, knowing that Pujols, et. al. would ask for more. Does help out teams like the Yanks because Fielder, Pujols, and Gonzalez can probably ask for more then Howard. This is basically Howard's last big contract. I don't know why they gave it to him, but i have to put faith in the Phils front office because they have done a great job. Maybe it was a sign to the rest of the team about loyalty or something, who knows.And this weekend will be an interesting one. I may swarm the under on the Halladay-Pelfrey game, but outside of that it will be a good tegst for both teams. I have to look a little more into that under, but i have to think Halladay will come out smoking after a hiccup last game
. I'll tail those Nuggets +6.5 and see if i can end the night breaking even. Friggin' Phils
EDIT: Funny stuff, I am 0-3 betting on Halladay's games this season now.
