My sister, the idiot
This evening while winding down from a day at work I received a phone call from my Dad. He told me an amusing little story about my 15 year old sister.
Apparently, two weeks ago, Nikki was grounded for talking on the phone with her friends after lights out and lying to my mom about it. She was grounded for two weeks, required to do an hour of chores each day, and was on all communication restriction (no phone, email, or IMing) during her grounding. She was warned repeatedly warned that if she lied again, she would lose the privilege of getting her driver's permit this summer.
Cut to today - her last day of being grounded. My Mom received her cell phone bill today, and was shocked to see that she owed $318 for text messaging over the last couple of weeks.
My mom has never text messaged anyone in her life (which explains why they don't have unlimited texting).
My dad immediately said, "Ask Nik."
She denied any knowledge of the text messages, to the point of insisting that she didn't know how to use the feature.
"I guess we'll have to ask the phone company for the transcripts." my Mom slyly added.
At that point she broke down, weeping and sobbing that she was sorry and admitting to stealing my Mom's cell phone every night to text her friends.
How many messages did she send, you ask?
100? 200? 500?
Oh no.
Over a two week period she sent 1100 messages, which adds up to 75 messages PER DAY. Considering she only had a couple of hours each day to use the phone, she's averaging 40 - 50 messages an hour. Impressive.
Nikki has now bought herself an extra 6 months of Mom's taxi service, another grounding, and has two months to pay back the $318.
Well done, Nicole. Well done, indeed.

Well that's just hilarious. I can imagine what the "transcripts" said about your parents ;)

My other sister, who is 25, even sat with her for 20 minutes telling her, basically, "Don't be dumb." after the first offense.
Sadly, wisdom wasted upon teenagers.

In the eighties Dr. Cham founded Glycoalkaloid Cancer Research looking into other potential BEC5 benefits along with its amazing effect on cancer. He conducted human studies involving keratoses, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinomas along with other skin lesions resulting in a regression of 100% of the skin lesions. Dr. Cham patented the production process for his Curaderm cream and continued his research. At this point in time it was realised that many of his patients have been cancer-free for 10 years or more.

Nurse practitioners are registered nurses who hold advanced positions in medical establishments and facilities. While they perform the same duties as registered nurses, they concentrate more on admin and supervision work, as well as assistance in treating rather complex medical conditions. Because of the advanced work requirements and responsibilities, nurse practitioners are thus provided with highly comfortable compensation for their service.

Who wouldn’t want to lose their extra pounds? Unfortunately, most solutions to weight loss mean intake of horrible tasteless pills coupled with trying out difficult exercise regimen. Well, not any more. Who says weight loss should mean taking in unappetizing supplements? With the many types of weight loss formula out in the market these days, it is no wonder why African Mango stands out. Made from the amazing red African mango fruit, this particular weight loss formula is all natural thus it does not come with any adverse side effects to a person with a good general health unlike other weight loss supplements.

Thank you for this article. I would also like to say that it can always be hard when you are in school and just starting out to create a long credit score. There are many students who are just simply trying to survive and have an extended or favourable credit history can occasionally be a difficult matter to have.
