Did You Get the Memo?

Recently when I got hit with a $22.50 surcharge for not paying my auto excise taxes on time (I never got the original bill), I was so incensed I fired off a letter to the tax collector's office giving them a piece of my mind. Not content with this, when I cut them a check for the $22.50, I put in the memo line, "Scam." Not very funny but then again it was more important to me to let them know how I feel about paying surcharges for a bill I never got and my paying the same rate every year while my car depreciates in value. But this got me to thinking if other people have written off-the-wall memos on their checks and whether they put the results on the internet. This is a collection of the best ones I've found.

Sometimes a lack of context makes it more interesting.

This one reads, "On behalf of cowardly Red Sox bloggers."

I saved the best for last and, fittingly, it's from my literary godfather, HST.
