I have a seriously cute dog, one of the kinds of dogs that literally stops traffic with her cuteness. Maybe not on busy streets, but certainly in my neighborhood – she has these huge ears that are almost always standing up, but she’s built real low to the ground. I’ve never produced a photo of her without getting a genuine “Awwwww” in return. How much fun is it going to be…
Call it a case of youthful naivete – in 1994, artist Cain Motter received a convenience check in the mail for $50 – and he spent it believing it was a gift. It wasn’t, of course; it was a standard marketing strategy used by many credit card companies. He learned that lesson when he received a bill in the mail for that amount plus the usual charges a credit card company applies.
