LRG T-shirt [work in progress]

This post is long overdue. I originally purchased the LRG "a revolutionary clothing company" t-shirt from a retail urban clothing store (ie, hip hop shop) on the infamous Washington Avenue strip of South Miami Beach.

I have an extensive collection of t-shirts and know how to take care of them.  After only the first wash, this is what began to happen

Miami-Dade Expressway Authority

I just got hosed by the Miami-Dade Expressway Authority, better known as MDX.  I was sent a separate invoice for the multiple times I drove through their electronic toll booth(s) during the month of August 2010.  These toll road
ways do not provide advanced warning of one's inability to
pay at a booth, therefore one can not take another route before
they're already captured on film and billed for a PREMIUM 
toll fee.  This fee is charged as a result of not having a "Sun Pass" and requiring their 'system' to bill by mail.

 They did respond recently to my inquiry:
 "Unfortunately we are not able to credit your account. We did received a payment for $5.50, for invoice # 100171540 issue on 9/2/10, Them we send invoice # A100303749 on 10/14/10 for $3.40 due on 11/4/10 it escalate to S100432963 on 11/22/10 due on 12/13/10, and it escalate
to V110740122 on 1/25/11. Our system electronically
escalate invoices adding additional late fees if we do not
received payment by the due date. We do apologize for the inconvenience this has brought unto you."

Is this practice of entrapment acceptable?  You decide.

Wells Fargo and their nonsense! [work in progress]

Well today I will share with you my most recent experience with my bank. The following is the transcript of a message that I sent them via an email on their website:
     Why is Wells Fargo charging me $1.00 to print out a penny's
     worth of ink and paper, in order to receive my last 10 trans-
     actions?  I would expect to pay extra if I were using another
     bank's ATM for such a transaction, but my own bank?  The
     ATM machine did say there "MAY" be a service charge.
     What's with the LANGUAGE?  Again, I am at my bank
     ATM and it can't tell me that I "WILL" (or will not) pay a fee
     for such a transaction with absolute certainty?  Is this
     unacceptable? YES!
You decide.

Greetings,
     I expect this to be an ongoing exchange between the customer (myself) and the company (Wells Fargo).  I feel as though I have invested in an institution that offers me obsolete banking services and engages in outdated practices.  So, I would like to investigate my 'feelings' objectively and have you all start explaining these practices to me.
     I am requesting, and would appreciate it greatly, that Wells Fargo give me a logistical explanation of why it takes 3-5 days for checks and electronic transfers to be credited to an account.

Regards,
