1. If there are almost 300,000,000

people in America and probably half of that number are children under 18, that's over half of all the adults in the USA, no?

2. My mom got her credit card info. stolen, but the guy was an idiot.

He bought a digital camera from (shudder) Wal-Mart and then sent it to our house.

3. Did your Mom already have a digital camera? That is just an

amazing story. It would have been even better had he/she had the camera sent to his/her house after buying it with your Mom's identity.

4. Yeah, we have one

My mom thought at first that it was a gift or something. Then she looked at the bill and saw her credit card number.
