I never received my BJ's credit-card bill for $18. Consequently, they imposed a $39 late fee and refuse to waive it. Take heed, BJ's and Barclaycard customers.
An award-winning travel writer and editor, Richard was on the staff of the Boston Globe for 25 years, retiring on Independence Day 2005. He can be e-mailed at r.carpenter@comcast.net.
Once upon a time, when newspapers were happier places, a group of Boston Globe copy editors created an in-house electronic file to express opinions and tell stories. For various (and perhaps obvious) reasons, they called it The Boring File. Time passed and the various contributors dropped out until Richard was the only writer left. Gradually the column faded away (and Richard retired) but thanks to the magic of the Internet, The Boring File lives again! And it will often live up to its name.
