So I stopped in with my Bank Manager today and asked him, any troubles yet this year? He said no, and I said, then you should be in a good mood for this, let me be the first!
I noted that in Santa Monica that the street are numbers till you get to 13 and that is Euclid. If I wrote a check whose date was 20Euclid would he take it. He thought about it and said he'd call me to make sure it was a current check as he'd not be able to tell when it was written otherwise. So the same situation if you sent me a check dated like that, and he said, we'' the other bank would have to clear it. The only trouble is knowing how old the check is as they aren't valid after 6 months. Then I recalled, the second place I lived in Seattle was on the Corner of Jefferson and 13th. Seattle must have been low on Roman Catholics when their streets were named. Personally, for the Knights Templar, the 13th is a lucky day, they avoided the robber barons. Lets hope we can deal with them better then that in 2013! Scott > Friends: Why not "20 Bar Mitzva" (or Bas Mitzva) ? In any case, HAPPY > NEW YEAR! Let's work to make it a lucky '13 !
