   went to use my credit card on saturday and it was declined. I thought that was strange. I had not used it since the following week and had not heard from my credit card company that it had not been compromised . didn't think twice about it until last night when i was getting in my truck to leave the office. From across the street a black suv with tinted windows roared into my parking lot, blocking in my truck. Two suited gentleman got out, identified themselves as homeland security agents cornered me and proceeded to question me rather aggressively. Apparently i had set off a watch algorithm .1. traveled to oklahoma  city on friday (I gave a dental lecture) , 2. returned the next day and used a credit listed under requirements of the american patriotic act (never heard of this requirement) as medical/dental to purchase 600 pounds of 20-10-10 fertilizer ,10 gallons of gasoline (in separate purchases ) a tractor battery and an alarm clock. It didn't matter that my dental office is at my f###ing farm and it would be obvious to anyone with a brain why I had made these purchases. And even so, maybe just a drive by would answered the questions. Instead I get the jack booted thugs

	Just goes to show that reality is by far crazier than fiction. Things like that you just can't make up or even imagine. Glad it turned out good for you and you have a true life story to tell for generations. I'd still be recovering from the shock and sleepless night from the thoughts running through my mind and the what could have happened.
