Why Chase Manhattan Sucks Like The Tootsie Roll Center of the Galaxy

Tuesday, July 20, 2010
Remember my friend Shawn Powers? The awesome geek whose home burned down in January?

Well, he and his family are having a terrible time getting the holder of their mortgage, Chase Manhattan, to release the money for their almost complete replacement home. Because evidently, Chase Manhattan sucks like the Tootsie Roll Center of the Galaxy (that would be a super-massive black hole for you non-science fan-girls).

Feel free to pop on over to The Brain of Shawn to see what's going on, and to help if you can.

Updated 7/21/2010, 10:08 a.m. Chase Manhattan has decided to release the funds so Shawn's house can be completed. I think that makes them the remnants of an unnova rather than a super-massive black hole.

Thank you Janiece. :)

(Also, I wasn't sure how many folks would "get" my geeky Tootsie Roll comment. Thanks for being a fellow geek.)

Fellow geeks must stick together. Especially as we approach the event horizon, where we'll have no choice.

What's the Event Horizon????

(Was I supposed to be paying attention? Huh? What?)

MG, it's the place where you better make damn sure you like the people you're with, as you're going to end up being far closer to them than you ever imagined.
