Hmmm ... now that you mention it ... nothing in the guest register. The guy never seemed like our type anyhow.
Being electronically minded, I pick the broken light-bulb.
I went to Credit Unions long ago. I never looked back. Suck it BOA.
You betcha...we just switched to them for banking, after having used them for insurance, credit card, car loan, &amp; home equity loan.
