Let the "Wang" jokes begin...
(Or as someone put it via IM... "I finally know what comes after 'Jocelyn' on The Infamous Check!")
This was the check I wrote to the City of Trackbacks

Posted by: :: jozjozjoz :: at May 27, 2004 10:02 AMWait... there's Super Grover checks?!?!?!?!?!
Posted by: Deltus at May 27, 2004 10:07 AMUm, okay, I looked at the picture again. My bad.
Posted by: Deltus at May 27, 2004 10:08 AMLOL. It's crazy how nytimes is insta-fame. but i found you through it.
Posted by: asparagus at May 27, 2004 10:11 AMOh my god - I want Super Grover cheques!
(and this is hilarious!)
Did this cash it?
Nice one joz - I'll have to try that next time...
Posted by: Jen at May 27, 2004 10:45 AMI've often thought about doing stuff like that. Only problem is, even if it can be deposited, what if the person who punches the check in is so offended s/he decides to put it in the shredder? Trust me, I've worked at a place where checks are received by mail, and it happens. but I still find it funny.
Posted by: NoBody at May 27, 2004 11:03 AMOoh, I have to use this the next time I get a parking ticket! But uh, did the check get cashed? :o
Posted by: Koganuts at May 27, 2004 12:12 PMYes, the check got cashed!
Posted by: :: jozjozjoz :: at May 27, 2004 12:16 PMIf there'd been a strategic comma placed in that, i.e. "the city of fucking, LA"... I'd be booking a moving truck right about now.
Posted by: Pie at May 27, 2004 12:39 PMI wrote a 2 cent check to the Democratic Committee and in the "For" area wrote "...the right to marry" and did all kinds of circles and arrows and vicious underlining on John Kerry's little "send me money and vote for me!" letter.
still waiting for it to be cashed though.
Posted by: texasyankee at May 27, 2004 02:19 PMThat's the best thing I've seen all day!
P.S. - I have those same checks... ChecksUnlimited.com has the newest series of Sesame Street checks and they're so cute!

Posted by: Nez at May 28, 2004 10:59 AMI'm not the only one who writes "only" in the amount on cheques!
