Chase and WaMu are busy telling people about that merger. Wachovia's story is a bit more complicated. Wish I'd seen its home page when Citigroup was the apparent buyer.

Why isn't some smart bedding manufacturer marketing its "home banking package" mattress with extra space for stuffing dollars or gold bars inside for safekeeping?
