Haha, its none other than your dear OLD and LOVABLE blogger, Qm.
Well, its been a long time since we last had Wacky 4 Oh Six News but no worries I happen to chance upon not 1 but TWO wacky articles to share with all of u here.
So here are the stories:
Article 1)
His plan didn't cover data usage, so he was charged by the megabyte
Estarija said after the first media reports, Verizon said they would credit his account for the entire amount.
He has also suspended his son's account.
A spokeswoman for Verizon said the company investigates cases with exceptionally large bills.
Qm's footnote: Thought u had problems paying your bill??? Think again... Last week when Enyun told me that my phone bill was $87, i was like "somebody take a gun and shoot me pls."So i guess there's always a higher mountain somewhere. Anyway, please dun follow this example k? I always believe that your tithes or offerings should be given to God and not to some mobile company, haha
Article 2)
Book 99 years overdue returned to Mass. library
NEW BEDFORD, Mass. – The book returned to the New Bedford Public Library in Massachusetts this week wasn't overdue by a week, a month or even a year. It was nearly a century overdue, and the fine came to $361.35.
"Facts I Ought to Know about the Government of My Country" was supposed to have been returned by May 10, 1910.
Stanley Dudek told the Standard Times newspaper he came across the book while going through things that had belonged to his mother, who died about 10 years ago. He decided that returning the book to the city was the right thing to do.
The overdue book fine was a penny a day in 1910. But Dudek wasn't asked to pay it.
The library plans to display the book in its special collection.
Qm's footnote: Wow, talk about long overdue books. Haha, this book is pratically ancient if i can say but the amazing thing is... the fine is only about $300++! If it happened in our modern context, you'll prob have 2 sell your house to pay off the fine. LOL
So there u go for this edition of Wacky 4 Oh Six news. Till next time, this is Qm signing off with a merry smile and lots of joyful laughter :)
