This week, I received a check in the mail from some kind of CitiBank class action settlement.  I'm always skeptical of envelopes that say “check enclosed” on them, but it was legit, and on top of that, it was for a grand total of eight cents!  What a waste! Nevertheless, It was the most news-worthy check I've received recently...until today.

Today, Becky received a check from the Screen Actors Guild for $64 for the infamous Unsolved Mysteries episode she “starred” in back in 1990.  Evidently, they played that part of the episode again on some cable special.  My check is crap compared to that!

So no, the title of this entry is not a typo.  We received multiple checks in the mail, not a single check that is currently in the mail.
