Yes, I said fraud. It turns out I am a victim of credit card fraud, ie identity theft! Some guy in Texas (38) paid for an online dating subscription and a few things from Amazon.com. I found out from my company a few things, called the online dating people, got information and went to the police. It has a been a fun friday night and now the Sunderland police are on the case. My experience with CSI Orem helped me know what to tell the police and what to ask them for. The officer was impressed when I asked for a case number. I do have to say that I'm impressed with VISA. They called me to warn me about the activity. I know we caught the problem on my end in time, now we'll see if we can catch HIM!
This was an interesting ending to a very busy week. I had my first computer program due, I had to read four articles, start studying for my own test, proctor the undergrad Biomech midterm, correct their homework and labs, and try to stay sane. The weather this week has gone from a nice cool fall to a warm wet northeast. Actually, today reminded me of a june day in Germany....wet, warm and gloomy. I kind of liked it, I'll admit it. But I rode my bike to school and I had to take the bus home and leave my bike in my office because it was pouring when I finally left today. But it was a good thing that it was raining because I was able to come home and get my credit squared away.

it's a darn good thing you're so savvy and clever, my friend. CSI Orem served you well.
Kipper is riding 65 miles in St George tomorrow...without me. I couldn't see making that drive again when I just was in St. George 4 days ago.
