Wanted: A new element.


Yesterday in my contrarian fashion, I did something that today is virtually unheard of. I opened a bank account. I wanted a place to park some dough until the time came that I had to pay taxes (buy weapons) with it.

Here is the choice that confronted me.

Do I want ________ Banking?
Or _________Banking Plus?
Or _________Banking Premium Plus?
Or _________Banking Premium Plus Platinum?

Holy Hyperbole, Batman!

After about two hours of deliberation I opted for ____________Banking Premium Plus Platinum Titanium Mercurochrome, now with Palin-ium for, "The best bankin' you betcha, wink."

Can't someone just give me a leatherette bankbook and a hearty handshake?
