I've officially changed my name
Well, at least at the Giant grocery store.
I apparently lost my bonus card a couple of weeks ago -- I removed all non-essential items from my wallet before I went on the honeymoon. I have no idea where the bonus card went.
So, yesterday I went and got a new one. I'm not a big fan of these loyalty programs everyone is creating. I don't see why they need your contact info, just so they won't overcharge you when you do them a favor and shop at their store and purchase the products they sell that keep them in business.
My solution? I simply put down false information. Last time, my name was Marko Ramius (anybody know where I got that one from?). This time...
Pink Floyd.
The lady at the courtesy counter, briefly challenged me...
After examining the form for a minute (I assume seeing if that was true), she gave me my new card.
As for the other info such as address, phone, and email... I make up an address, and leave the others blank.
I think next time my name will be Tommy Tutone, and my phone number will be 415.867.5309.
P.S. Traci refused to accompany me to the courtesy counter, as she knew what I was going to be doing.

Employee: Your name isn't Pink Floyd.
Me: You can't prove it's not, and I don't have to show you any ID to get the card.

What is Sean Connery's caracter from The Hunt for Red October Alex?
I will take movie characters for $1000 Alex.
You should have used. Ricard K! Zootlanter
Close...
The question was "Name the character from one of Rich's favorite books who captained the Red October?"
The movie was a HUGE disappointment, and I prefer to pretend it doesn't exist.
I thought about the Mr. Zootlanter persona, but decided to go with something they could pronounce.
