March 15, 2006: Would Even A Shredder Be Enough?

Here's the story of a fellow who decided to test whether a torn-up and taped credit card application would be accepted.

For me, the very best part was noticing all the credit-card-application ads that Google Ads served to his page. Wonder if they get clicked?
