Other then that, everything is done online - and I'm sure that sooner or later, I'd pay those online too!

I also high-tail it to the next closest checkout line because I've reached the breaking point where I can wait in line, but I can no longer wait in line for someone paying by check. (BTW, if you are wondering, who this this. It's Greg, we met at TechCocktail last night.) Great post, I ask myself this question every time I see the checkbook come out in the checkout line.

In general, however, I entirely agree with your "what's with checks?" question....makes no sense in this modern day in age. Great meeting you tonight! I will work on getting the Irish accent up to your standard. Let's do scotch some time! You don't, by chance, like a cigar from time-to-time, do you? (I figured you already like scotch and moshpits, which most women do not, so perhaps you go for a good stogie and scotch once in a while. If so, I know a great place!) Have a great Friday!
