A Snowball

February 05, 2010

One day last November, I received a Rogers cable bill addressed to "A Snowball" in my mailbox.

"Great! A scammer opening a Rogers account using my address!!!" But I had to laugh at the name. Clever little bugger. I set the mail addressed to A Snowball on the table, I'll deal with it later, I sighed.

The next day, I went downstairs to meet my new ground floor neighbour who was setting up an art gallery.

"Hi! I'm Vince, from upstairs."

"Hi! I'm Alison! Good to meet you."

During our introductory chat, I was scanning the walls of art and behold...a signature on the wall, Alison Snowball.

D'oh!
