Thirty years ago I opened a bank account at an institution called the "First National Bank", in Fayetteville, Arkansas. Contrary to its name, this bank was a one branch operation conveniently located in a small college town. A few years later, it was purchased by the Worthen Corporation, and became "big blue."
From that point everything became a blur. Worthen was purchased by Boatman's bank, which was later conquered by Regions bank, and then I think maybe Nations took over for awhile, then, eventually, the Bank of America entered my life. I went along with all the corporate changes, and in what seemed like a heartbeat I rocketed from ma and pa corner business to immense corporation.
So now I have been "with" the B o A for...I forget how long...maybe close to twenty years...
If that aint a rapid fire roller coaster white water adventure, I don't know what is.
And the adventure, at that point, was just beginning....
