Hmmm, A.P. Giannini was born in San Jose, California in 1870. But his child, The Bank of Italy, was born in San Francisco in 1904. Bank of Italy became Bank of America, and they are still in the business of taking money even though they moved their headquarters to North Carolina.

Hee hee. A ten year-old bandit? I know San Francisco is famous for innovations, but that's a little out there. Have you got any more clues we can work from?

All I know is that answerbanks/askjeeves/and google have a ton of fake websites out there to throw you off. (some are probably made from people also in the same competition) You are better looking for official answers not a forum.

Rosa, it's a Marlboro contest. The lazy few who don't want to work ask others the questions. Those of us who are working at it ourselves read these posts and laugh. Wish the honest ones luck, and tell the askers to can it!!!

What is the big deal on helping people with the answers to the Marlboro contest. I am having fun myself look up the answers and I didn't even qualify. They said I didn't get mine in by the date. I sent it the first of Sept. Oh well, I will help anyone that needs it.

well i think that maybe next time he comes around try taking off his bandit mask but carry a knife with you just in case he tries to harm you then you just stab him in the back only if he tries to harm you but i don't think you'll take an 11 yr olds advice
