IIRC, I forgot to recognize that Hermillion taped her fantastic run six years ago, yesterday.

Congrats again 6 years later!

You are correct, sir. The check came in a plain window envelope, regular mail. I recognized the return address, ripped open the envelope while standing in the middle of my driveway -- then counted the zeroes two or three times. It was a crazy afternoon!

I'll bet the bank teller didn't react at all when you deposited it.

I love how Mecca's payroll checks come with enough room for 7 figures..... as if....

Hopefully tomorrow's check will be the first one ever to put a digit in that thousands slot for me.....
