Man Writes Check on 2 - Ply Toilet Paper
 

BINGHAMTON, N.Y. (AP) -- An upstate New York man embroiled in a dispute over his water bill is not being allowed to pay off his debt with a check written on toilet paper. Ron Borgna tried to settle his $2,509.66 bill with a check written on floral print, two-ply toilet paper Wednesday.

The disagreement began in September 2006 when Borgna received a $422.90 water bill. Borgna claims he was overbilled. With additional charges, penalties and late fees that bill has grown.

Binghamton city officials refused to accept the check. After a short argument, Borgna was escorted out of the building.

Borgna says he is appealing the judgment against him in small claims court.

I guess unlike TP, they aren't gonn take his *****.

Oh, are you saying it was after he had USED the toilet paper?!:eek:

No wonder . . .

Didn't someone try that with a mountain once?:D

I want to know how he got the bank routing numbers on there...

That huge bill probably WIPED him out . . . .

I've made deposits with TP before but never a withdrawal.

Ugh!
