My previous comment meant that with those things in place, I have no reason to go to the bank anymore. I guess if I had massive funds, there might be a reason, but alas, not the case.
2:21 pm

I hardly ever go also.. have everything on direct deposit. But I got a check from a source that doesn't have direct deposit set up yet, and I don't have one of those phones where you send in the pic to make the deposit

another fo8 - a pl of fo7 that already looks plural, relates to bones I think
10:03 pm
mkg
have to think about that one. ty. bones........hmmm
10:29 pm
mkg
cant find that bone fo 8. nor the 7. sorry
10:31 pm
rbud
the fo 7 is like the other two fo 7's that are what you call bosses or supervisors - but with a different 2nd vowel.
10:33 pm
rbud
well, one of the other two fo 7's is a single and the other is more than one. change the 2nd vowel on the "more than one" version.
10:36 pm
rbud
and then pl.
10:36 pm
mkg
ty got those two. ty.
10:36 pm
mkg
they are sevens. dont see 8s.
10:37 pm
rbud
I was using those two to explain how to get the fo 7 and 8.
10:37 pm
mkg
the boss words have no plurals. sorry
10:38 pm
rbud
take the plural fo 7 for a boss and change the 2nd vowel, then pl
10:38 pm
mkg
still dont get it. sorry. in lickety the other fo 7/8 is before those. so it will be a different second cons.
10:39 pm
mkg
