Crazy Work Week, Light Blogging Ahead

Not much time to blog this week, at least until Friday. Today, I'm just putting up one of my Friday style news of the lighter side:

So You Think Your Utility Bills Are High?

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia --A Malaysian man said he nearly fainted when he recieved a $218 trillion phone bill and was ordered to pay up within 10 days or face prosecution, a newspaper reported Monday.

Yahaya Wahab said he disconnected his late father's phone line in January after he died and settled the 84 ringgit ($23) bill, the New Straits Times reported.

It wasn't clear whether the bill was a mistake, or if Yahaya's father's phone line was used illegally after after his death.

"If the company wants to seek legal action as mentioned in the letter, I'm ready to face it," the paper quoted Yahaya as saying. "In fact, I can't wait to face it," he said.
