Riddle me this Batman - Why you giving yo' money to Gotham City, when you have a fine financial institution sitting right between York and North Main, with additional locations at the north and south ends o' town, Willow Park, Aledo, and also just five minutes from MWSP?

If not that one, there are many good Texas-based banks & CUs.

I had to pick up an appliance part at a Grainger store this week - every time I used the button (on their website), it gave me a bunch of gibberish, but no map or location.

At my old job, we used MapPoint enterprise s/w to track our field personnel - including yours truly. It was coordinated with GPS loggers, and in addition to making sure people were where they were supposed to be (albeit after the fact), it also formed the basis for calculating mileage reimbursement. Often I would check my route after a day afield, to find that I'd started my day somewhere near the equatorial Atlantic.

But they never would allow me to claim those miles on my expense report.
