The big spenders go to Walmart!

Police: Woman Tried to Pass Fake $1M Bill


COVINGTON, Ga. (AP) - A woman was caught trying to use a fake $1 million bill to buy $1,675 worth of merchandise at a Wal-Mart, and was later found with two more of the bills in her purse, police said.

The United States Treasury does not make $1 million bills, but people can buy souvenirs of such a bill at some stores, police said.





``It looks real, but of course there's nothing real about this,'' Covington Police Chief Stacey Cotton said Tuesday. ``People do crazy things all the time. I think it's just another example of some odd things that occur.''

A clerk at the store immediately noticed the bill was fake when 35-year-old Alice Regina Pike handed it to her on Friday, Cotton said.


Pike then tried to use two gift cards with only $2.32 of value on them to buy the merchandise, but when that didn't work she again asked if the clerk could cash the $1 million bill, Cotton said. The store then called police.


Pike, of Porterdale, was charged with forgery. There was no listing for her phone number in directory assistance, and she could not be reached for comment Tuesday.


Covington is 32 miles southeast of Atlanta.

BUSH-CHENEY 2000 TO PAY $90,000 CIVIL PENALTY
FOR FAILING TO DISCLOSE RECOUNT ACTIVITY


WASHINGTON -- The Federal Election Commission (FEC) has entered into a conciliation agreement with Bush-Cheney 2000, Inc. resulting from the failure to report to the FEC receipts and disbursements associated with its recount activities. Bush – Cheney 2000, Inc. has agreed to pay a $90,000 civil penalty.

According to the conciliation agreement, Bush – Cheney 2000 held a bank account designated “Bush-Cheney 2000, Inc. – Media.” After the November 7, 2000 presidential election, the Committee redesignated this bank account “Bush-Cheney 2000, Inc. – Recount Fund” and used the account to raise funds and pay costs associated with the recount. However, the Committee failed to include that activity in disclosure reports filed with the Commission.

The Federal Election Campaign Act (the Act) requires authorized committees of candidates for federal office to report the total amount of all receipts of disbursements in committee accounts, and to itemize them when the aggregate amount or value exceeds $200 in an election cycle. In Advisory Opinions 1998-26 and 1978-92, the Commission held that while separate organizations established solely to fund a recount effort would not be required to file disclosure reports, a federal political committee establishing a bank account for recount purposes must report those receipts and disbursements.

Filings submitted to the IRS in 2002 and 2003 suggest the recount account raised approximately $11 million and spent approximately $13 million.

Bush- Cheney 2000 admitted that the failure to report the receipts and disbursements associated with its recount activity and to properly itemize them as “other receipts” and “other disbursements” violated the Act. The committee agreed to cease and desist from violating these sections of the Act and agreed to submit a miscellaneous filing to the FEC that discloses and itemizes, where appropriate, its recount receipts and disbursements.

Whatever happened to the tried-and-true tactic of denying sex to a man until he does what the woman wants? Why did this dog have to die so the #&%!$ could have her way?

I've never actually seen this work, it seems the man can always outlast the woman, or find another one.

Yes, it sends an excellent signal to the man that it's time to move on.

Maybe this guy is so dumb she felt she had to kill his dog for him to get the hint.

Lucky that couple didn't get married....or it would've been a real "War of the Roses".

And that woman's name is Erin Wylie...something like the Wylie Coyote of Bugs Bunny fame. Crazy b!tches.
