    88 Billion reasons to check your account daily!

    Stephanie Hickman of Virginia found her bank account contained a purported $88 billion Thursday after a bank error accidentally credited her account. However it was not the boon it may have seemed.
    Instead of cashing out she called her bank, Sun Trust Bank, to report the mishap. However upon speaking to several employees Stephanie was told that the error was a mystery, and there was no solution to be offered.
    Meanwhile the families account was locked, leaving them unable to withdraw even the money that was actually theirs. "Everything´s frozen, I´m not saying that the $88 billion is my money, but the $150 at least that we had in the account was my money."

    School Principal Cancels Classes Due to Good Weather

    Washington: After not using all the allocated snow days during winter the principal of Bellingham Christian School has canceled classes for a day due to good weather.
    Parents were emailed the night before and Principal Bob Sampson posted this on the Web site: "Good morning students, parents and staff. Yes, It´s a Sun Day! Wahooo. That´s right, school is CANCELED today due to good weather! Enjoy!"
    Parents who were not in a position to allow their children to stay home on the unexpected Wednesday off had the option of sending them to school where they could be supervised. Out of 183 students, five spent the day at school playing.

    Good News - Da Vinci Says The World Is Not Ending Yet!

    A Vatican researcher says that a prediction made by Leonardo da Vinci marks the end of the world as the first day of November in the year 4006. According to Sabrina Sforza Galitzia, da Vinci´s "Last Supper" contains the hidden clues.
    She says she´s deciphered a “mathematical and astrological” puzzle contained in the central half-moon window that foretells of a months-long “universal flood” that year, and that documents show him believing “a new start for humanity” would follow.
    “There is a da Vinci code — it is just not the one made popular by Dan Brown.” She said her current focus is researching a hidden da Vinci "code" which utilizes the Latin alphabet and zodiac signs.

    So the moral of the story is:
    Have a day off, go check your bank account and don't worry, the sun WILL rise tomorrow!
