Kim, I don’t have your email, and LiveJournal doesn’t allow riff raff like me to contact you through your site:

“Sorry…
To use the “Tell a Friend” feature, you must first login”

I am very sorry to have left you out. It wasn’t intentional.

Since I’m not worthy of said news via said email , I’ll congratulate you here on what I deduce your betrothed said yes to many times =)

CONGRATULATIONS!

I already shared any news I am going to share with those people who I deemed worthy of said news at this time, Lori. I assume you got that email.

I don’t normally go into detail about my personal life here. Besides, my betrothed said it all rather well, I think

Actually, the fastest payment option I’ve encountered is the Mobil/Exxon Speedpass. Just wave the key tag over the sensor, and you’re all set. Once, I was able to pull up into a gas station just as the guy in front of me finished pumping his gas. I was able to fill up and take off before he’d even finished paying for his gas.

Granted, there are security concerns that prevent the Speedpass from becoming as universal, but, maybe coupled with a built in biometric sensor (thumbprint scanner, maybe?) and Bluetooth, it can make the wallet itself a thing of the past.

Dude, you’re so not married. If it weren’t for that plastic in my wallet, I’d never be able to buy anything.

What a surprise that you haven’t been posting today. Is something important happening?

The check at the grocery store is the all time worst. Ok, maybe second worst to the person who sends their kid back in to get ice cream or something after the cashier has already started ringing everything up.

I also think that the debit card is a very fast option. While the cashier is ringing up the goods, I swipe my card, put in my pin and then your just waiting for the total. The total comes up and you hit enter. Nothing to sign, yer outta there…
