Guinness Attempt!


I watched LA Ink the other day, where tattoo master Kat Von D went for a Guinness World Record for most people tattooed in a single day, by the same person (her). More than 500 people lined up and waited for hours (hours!) to pay $20 to get the exact same tattoo as 500 other people. The tattoo seems to basically be Kat's logo, and the money went to charity. What about me? I support charity, too!

So I decided to go for a World Record as well.
Starting now, I'm going for the most people to ever give power of attorney to a single individual (me). There's no time limit; it's a lifetime achievement award. Basically, just go to this site, pick your state, fill out the form and mail it to me. Kat charged $20, but I'm only going to charge $15. All the proceeds will go to framing your signed and notarized statement to hang on my wall.

Hurry to be a part of history!

a short story about hats:



(all confidential or sensitive information has been replaced with the word "hat")

All Hat Airlines Agent: how can i help you?
Me: I have about $600 that's not mine.
AHAA: yes?
Me: So Hat had a ticket from Hat to Hat that was purchased under the wrong name. When hat tried to change her ticket, the hat counter cancelled the old ticket, and issued a cash refund to hat. The hat counter then issued hat a new ticket without charging any money.
AHAA: that is impossible, we don't issue cash refunds like that.
Me: but i have the money!
AHAA: no... we have no data that the money was issued.
Me: but it's here...
AHAA: no.
Me: what the hat?
(and that's why, if i didn't work for the government, i'd be $300 dollars richer - at least there was that incentive check)
