I never knew about any cheque is not signed. Those are signed too, if you look closely.

Well, these are signed by the governor. Traveller's cheques are signed at the time you pay, by the owner, to make sure that they're not stolen. Otherwise they act more like money than like cheques.
I'm pretty sure bearer cheques are more like money in that if you pay someone with one, they can then spend it as well.

At least the cheques we use here are bearer cheques or you have to write the name of the person you want to give the money, all depending of how you write it.

Probably I'm confused because the cheques I know can be Bearer Cheques or Travelers Cheques, just depend of how you write them.

There is always the strong possibility that I don't know what I'm talking about.

GinnyN · 03/16/2010, 05:23 am

I always want to believe I'm the one with the problem, because that it's something I can fix from my end.

When did you get this 1760?

*seanvanaman* · 03/18/2010, 09:39 am

Pinchpenny · 03/22/2010, 02:42 pm

Does anyone have a mirror of the list? Both ones inside this thread (here and here) are down. I'd be willing to host and maintain the list if someone can get what we had reuploaded temporarily.

No way! Not until the peer pressure lets up!

You're right. Hmm, I could have sworn it wasn't working for me when I posted that. Pale Man seems to have kept it slightly up to date, but I've saved it just incase he does a runner.

Rather Dashing · 03/22/2010, 03:04 pm

By the way, I have book #

1675

(yes, that was totally necessary).

Also, it's still in its plastic wrap. Either to be sold or, more likely, as a back-up in case my first copy gets, um, damaged. Especially now that these are sold out. Also, I've had this for months.

mcd · 03/23/2010, 03:42 pm

#2404. Got it two weeks ago because of W&G dvd delay + living in Europe delay

I could have left my second copy in the plastic wrap (actually, i also have teh paperback, so i could have left them both in the plastic wrap...) but it didn't feel respectful to steve. Also,

I have the paperback as well. Three copies. One to read in my room with great love and care, one to read on the road, and one to make sure the one that I read with great love and care can be replaced if something bad happens to it. I think it's respectful enough to have a comic set aside to be loved at some point in the future. Love can totally have contingency plans.

I've got one original Surfin' the Highway paperback that I've been reading since I was 13 or so.
I found it at a local comic book store for the (back then for me) super high price of 40 Guilders and 25 cents. It's still in pretty good condition, even though I've taken it with me on the road, in the tub and a couple of other places.
I've got the hardcover by telltale too, and I've given a softcover to a friend of mine.

Given is a word used too frequently when talking about this book. It should be "loaned" or "sold". I would never "give away" my Sam & max stuff. Not that it's wrong to do this. I'm just a tight ass.

Joop · 03/28/2010, 04:25 am

I bought it as a present for his birthday.
Why would I want two copies of the same book anyway?

I completely forgot other people had birthdays, what with mine coming up and so on...
