In other news, I had no idea that a bank was robbed 6 blocks from my house last week, directly across the street from MY bank. Thanks Lakewood Police! Way to look out for us!
And to think, a guy was walking out of my bank yesterday so preoccupied with counting what looked like more than $1000 he nearly walked into my car as I was parking. That guy probably would like to have been informed of this.
