Don't ever ask "What else can go wrong?"
... because you just might get an answer.
I don't have all the details because all I'm going on is an angry phone call from my mother, but apparently someone in Columbus, Georgia, has spent $699.82 of my parents' money. It was at a Wal-Mart? Using a check? But it was entered electronically so the check was handed back to the person and they don't have it? We live in Alabama and we've never been to Columbus? And the corresponding number among my mother's checks was a $100-ish payment to Shell? We're hoping that it was somehow a mistake on the bank's part and not, you know, someone with my parents' bank account number living it up at Wal-Mart. They're on their way to the bank right now, and then on to the police department if necessary (but oh my Lord do I hope it is not necessary).
