Is this any way to run a baseball team?

What sort of operation is located in one country, yet has its accounting department in a different one.

If you guessed the Washington Nationals, then you are right.

I've tried to figure out what sort of business model the Nationals follow, but so far I don't think there is one.

You figure, if they pay Cristian Guzman in Canadian dollars maybe the deal won't look quite so horrid.

I called Vonage yesterday and talked to "Dean" in Customer Service. Dean had to be in India.

He also told me that a change to my service would cost me "ten point two nine dollars"
