99% of the time where we are signing for something, it's just a waste of time. It's just antiquated.

Think about it for a second. The last time you signed your signature, or if you signed your signature on one of those pads that hardly register... but nothing happened afterwards.

For credit cards, at most establishments, I think you are exactly right.

I'm going to start signing "Dez Bryant" on those signing pads that you mentioned, to see if anyone notices. I don't think it will be noticed.

Hmm. Next time I have to electronically sign the screen at the Target pharmacy for my prescription I'll try "Micky Mouse" and see what happens.

I read something a year or so ago about a guy who started signing the electronic signature panel by drawing a particular part of the male anatomy. I don't remember how long it said he went about doing this but eventually the cashiers started getting a message during the transaction to verify the signature.

My initials are P.P. My signature has turned into P squiggle P squiggle over the years. There are no letters anymore except the Ps.

We had an incident like this when I was a very young airman. A few people had some weekend duty to serve and had to in check a couple thousand parts. By the afternoon they were bored with counting and signing so signed some Daffy Duck, Mickey Mouse, Mighty Mouse, etc... You get the picture. They would have gotten away with it if someone had not miscounted and we needed to track down the paperwork to verify the quantities.

Needless to say, they had some more weekend duty to do after that and some very well written paperwork in their PIF's.

Is there a more convenient way to bind someone to a legal agreement?
