Weight Watchers

Dear Weight Watchers,

I’ve been a member for a few months now, and it’s been really helpful having the support and tools to help me control my weight. I have a couple of questions I’m hoping someone can answer, though.

Last Wednesday was my birthday, and a few friends and I went out to a local pizza parlor to celebrate. I ate several slices of pizza, making sure to track my points. I indulged, and had about 20 points worth of pizza, causing me to have to dip into my flex points. Later that night I didn’t feel well, and eventually threw up my dinner.

How does this affect my points? Do I get those 20 points back? Does it depend on how much I threw up? Because if so, I threw up about 1 and 3/4 cups.

Vulcan Video

Dear Vulcan Video,

I recently rented some movies from you over the holidays and saw a disturbing FBI message at the beginning of one of the films: “DVD FOR SALE ONLY”. I do not want to get in trouble with the FBI, as I have had some tax problems in the past, and do not want to press my luck. What do I need to do to safely resolve this situation? Can I purchase the film in question from you for the original cost minus the cost of the rental (which I already paid)? Will that be enough to keep me out of trouble?

Also, are you going to get in trouble from the government for renting a DVD that’s clearly meant for sale only, or did you simply mix up DVDs you had for sale and DVDs you had for rent? For what it’s worth, I will not say anything to the FBI about this matter, as I enjoy your video store very much and would not want to see it closed down.

Sincerely,
Linda Wilson

Polish Nail Spa

Dear Polish Nail Spa,

My family is hosting a foreign exchange student from Poland for the next few months, and I’m looking for things for her to do in town that might make her feel more at home. What types of services you offer that might suit a Polish customer? Do you serve any Polish themed foods during nail care, or play any Polish music?

Thank you,
Linda B. Wilson

Covert Ford

Dear Covert Ford,

My husband’s birthday is coming up shortly, and he’s been wanting a new truck for some time now. Since I’d like this to be a surprise, I thought Covert Ford would be a good choice of dealership.

Before I commit to purchasing, though, I’d like more information about the secrecy-related services you offer.

Can the car be delivered to our house sometime between midnight and 5am (when my husband will surely be asleep)? Also, is it possible to pay for the car after my husband has received it?

Thank you,
Linda B. Wilson

Free Whitepaper

Dear CDW,

I recently saw your online advertisement for “free whitepaper” while I was browsing for a birthday present for my husband, and was intruiged. Not being one to pass up a good deal, I clicked on the link and printed out the suggested files. To my surprise, when the paper came out of my printer it already had writing on it. Was this an error on my part, or is your link incorrect? I was expecting plain white paper.

Sincerely,
Linda B Wilson

P.S. Do you offer free colored paper, too? I’m doing an art project and am in need of some colorful paper. Neon green, specifically.
