quick question. need to make a large withdrawal(like 10kish max) in cash from from the bank(BOI) tomorrow or the next day. Will this be a problem? I assume if I call in advance, maybe they need 24 hours notice or something?
EDIT: Before people say don't be keeping too much money in BOI etc, I don't really, but I use it to withdraw poker moneys generally.Last edited by cardshark202; 04-05-11, 02:16.

I think its quite fitting that the man who vowed not to shave until bin Laden was caught, ended up with a big black and grey Bin Laden beard
SPOILER
Man shaves for the first time since 9/11
Moved by the 9/11 tragedy, he grew the beard to remind his pupils of America’s most deadly terror attack.
The beard then began making headlines in 2002, receiving more press coverage on the fifth anniversary of the attacks.
As years went by, the teacher started to believe that he would still be wearing the grey 15-inch-long beard a decade after the attacks which killed 3,000 people.
Weddle was working in the garden at 7.48pm (US Pacific Standard Time) on Sunday when a work colleague called to tell him that bin Laden was dead.
On hearing the news that the world’s most wanted terrorist had been killed, Weddle reached for a razor and scissors, with the momentous occasion witnessed by his thrilled wife and friends.
The 50-year-old, who was so eager to fulfill his vow, told The Daily Astorian newspaper that he spent the first five minutes crying as he couldn't get it off fast enough.
The principle of Weddle’s school in Ephrata issued a statement, honouring his commitment. “For 3,454 days, Mr Weddle kept his word, faithful and true. He endured ridicule, jokes and no doubt people telling him that his was a lost cause.”
“On top of that he watched daily news reports that cast doubt whether Osama bin Laden was even still alive, or if dead his body would never be recovered. In which case, to be true to his word Mr Weddle would have to never shave again for the rest of his life.”
Now clean-shaven, his wife, Donita said: “I wanted him to get rid of it, but it was his vow. I respected his passion and keeping a vow. I was willing to look past the beard because I love him. He looks ten years younger. It’s a very happy moment for us. It’s a very happy moment for the whole nation.”
Unfortunately for Mr Weddle, he cut himself whilst shaving for the first time in 3,454 days.

I was refer more to the comments on the naivity of people questioning the fact that they didn't instantly release pictures of the body. And the general GTFO tone.
Lloyd didn't mention it, but it's similar to people questioning the fact that he was buried so quick (in accordance with Islamic law). How is that surprizing given one of the USAs main points in the Obama's address was that a war on terrorism is not a war Islam

His wife 'respecting his vow' is even more idiotic, if possible.
Last but not least, I'm guessing 'The principle of Weddle’s school in Ephrata' is actually the principal of the school - unless they created a special 'principle' position for him in honour of his sticking to his core belief of not shaving for any old arbitrary reason!

I know you have personal connections with the place but I don't think many Pakistanis would classify themselves as friendly towards the US.

The local politicans want US money but have no appetite or desire to confront the jihadists. In many cases they're pretty openly supportive of the radical agenda.
look at the recent murder of Salman Taseer for example and, more tellingly the reaction to his assassin. Your fellow proponents of the legal profession come out of this well.
The recent (linked) case of the Christian lady who was sentenced to death is another symptom of a country that is becoming increasingly lawless and radicalised. There's a very good reason the Yanks didn't let the Pakistanis know about their plans to get Bin Laden, they don't trust them an inch."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

If the US thought they could go into Pakistan and take them out without risking a retaliatory attack on India or perhaps American interests in Africa they absolutely would. Right now they're militarily overstretched and that keeps Pakistan from the diplomatic and military ass-kicking it so desperately needs.You are technically correct...the best kind of correct
