Those rating agencies are so screwed up. Back in 1992, they had me living in Miami, somewhere in Texas and Little Rock, ARK. I also was accused of owing 15K to a Home Depot in Texas. That was interesting since I had never been to Texas at that time. Home Depot sold the debt for pennies on the dollar and I had this hound dog calling up my house every day a few times a day for the money. My wife was in tears. I got rid of my home number and we went to cell phones. That solved that problem. I was getting credit from the banks so I wasn't impacted. I was going to kill the guy but I didn't want to go to prison so I refrained. In 2000, it was on my credit report that my social security number and card number was stolen. It took 8 years for the credit agencies to resolve the matter. So, I know how to handle these dirt bags. Oh, and by the way they still have me living in different parts of the country. I got better things to do with my time then to straighten them out. I have no idea how they gather information. All I know is nobody is asking me for my money these days. Every 8 years or so, the old debt gets resold and someone tries to collect. After I tell them that time restrictions to collect have passed and if they continue harassing me, I will sue them, then they stop.

Three Equifax Inc. senior executives sold shares worth almost $1.8 million in the days after the company discovered a security breach that may have compromised information on about 143 million U.S. consumers.

The trio had not yet been informed of the incident, the company said.

very believable excuse

I went to Whole Foods in Henderson after the Packer game last night to check and see if they had my brand of Green tea, which was temporarily out at Vons (Albertsons). No luck. I also noticed that prices had not come down one penny in the seafood section, in particular in regard to the boned raw Trout and Salmon.

I went to the Sushi corner and they wanted to charge me $13.25 for 6 pieces of Tuna sushi, just raw tuna on brown rice.

I can't shop here with good conscience. Other health food stores have the same quality at less than half to two thirds of the price.

Place was not very busy. Smith's (Kroger) and Vons (Albertsons) are a lot busier around here, along with Sprouts. Natural Grocers is also much cheaper.

My view of Whole Foods is that it is overhyped, expensive stuff for people who have more money than they know what to do with.

I also saw an armed security guard at the entrance/exit. I haven't seen that in other stores.
