You've read in this space about the bumbling LMW staffer who accidentally dialed a phone sex line while trying to activate a Chase banking card (LMW, 7/15). That card must have carried a curse similar to Peter Brady's tiki doll in the Brady Bunch Hawaiian episode because it leapt from its bearer's pocket last weekend and made a break for freedom on the street. Because it has a MasterCard link as a debit card, that's a problem if it ends up in the wrong hands. But it was recovered by a Good Samaritan, who called Chase and had the troublesome card canceled. A new card, with good karma, is in the mail.
