And what was her reaction?

She was affectless throughout. If she'd been joking, it would have been a masterful deadpan delivery. But she said everything in a clipped monotone that made the whole thing even funnier than it reads.

I was gonna ask both, what did she do? And, so did the card ever work or were you left purchase-free?

She ran it on another machine, which worked.

Did she have to do it slow, straight and deep on that one?

Nope. Lickity-split.

I've found that some machines like it slow straight and deep, and others like it fast and shallow. Just goes to prove that computers are female.

I wrote a longer messages I trashed, Ogged, which boiled down to: sex -- wonderful; other stuff -- even more.
Gosh, you're making me so spiritual. And I bet you can't even find me porn movies to change my mind. (Although I'm open to the research, mind.)

Trying hard not to imagine MadTV's Swan, as Ogged's checkout lady.

Heh. I keep envisioning the woman from the Chinese drive-thru in Dude, Where's My Car.
"And den?"

Oh, God. As my wife says to me, "you have a dirty mind."
I've had clerks wrap it in plastic when the slow and fast don't work.
