Re: The Decision

From Wikipedia;

Chad were made infamous in the highly contentious 2000 United States presidential election where many of Florida votes used Votomatic style punched card ballots. Incompletely-punched holes resulted in partially punched chad, where one or more corners were still attached, a hanging chad, dimpled chad or pregnant chad - where all corners were still attached, but an indentation appears to have been made. These votes were not counted by the tabulating machines

If the call's been made, I guess the question really is:

 

How many times will LS check the Amex Approval Status site in the next 1-24 hours?

 

HA!

 

The over/under is at 20 times/hour until approved.  Smiley Very Happy


 

Well that explains the "We're sorry, our system is experiencing problems, please try again later" message that I got when checking the status of my Amex account... LS has brought their servers to their knees with his incessant checking!!! Smiley Very Happy

 

Good luck, LS. Sitting back awaiting the outcome...



LOL,,, ur killing meSmiley Very Happy

More controversy as reports are coming out of AMEX HQ saying riots have broken out and "AMEXgate" had begun. Occupy AMEX protesters have used their Discover cards for the 5% cash back groceries and stocked mini refrigerators outside the HQ.
