I made a horrible (coin-related) mistake at the P.O. today

I was shipping a coin to a dealer for his purchase via Express Mail , using his account. Somehow, I only had five of the six digits of the account number. As the line of people were forming behind me, knowing that I was already in trouble for being late to a holiday lunch engagement, I quickly called the dealer from the postal counter. One of his underlings answered. Feeling pressured, I blurted, "It's RYK, I need the Express Mail number to send XXXX a coin!"
On the way home, realizing the horrible mistake that I had made, I took the long way home, checking frequently in the rear view mirror. When I returned home, I informed my wife that we would have to stay at a hotel (or her mother's house) until we could sell the house and buy another one. I do not think that I am going to change my identity at this point, but are there any other precautions that I should take?

Haha!!
His first wish was that he could be on a tropical island surrounded by Palm and Coconut trees and a beautiful beach. Poof ! It was granted
His second wish was that he could have two gorgeous Costa Rican sisters. Poof ! There they were.
His third wish was that he would never have to work a day in his life again. Poof !
There he was...
sleepin' in that chair at the PO.

<< <i>Were you holding two packages-- one was the schlock that you planned on passing off on Longacre because he buys anything, and the other package with the good stuff that you planned to keep, and you mixed up the packages? >>
No, I would not make a mistake that ridiculous.

Better call the dealer. He needs to keep a sharp lookout for this $50 coin.

they might be interested in diamonds or cash
The edit was worth the ten minute wait, RYK.
And we thought the paparazzi was chasing after celebs when it was our own LongRYKacre they were chasing after all along
Oh ... and can I have your autograph for my wife....

1) You need a change of name immediately. Joseph Bambrick will do.
2) You need to set up a Trust and transfer all of your assets into new accounts under that trust. Today is tuesday, so it is important that the trustee you appoint is a Libra. It is important to conduct all account closure transactions with a high shrill voice so as to protect your identity.
3) Arrange your trustee to purchase a new vehicle. It must be a white Ford Focus sedan, base model, blue interior. Have the vehicle delivered to the third floor of your local airports short term parking structure. Drive your current vehicle to the basement of the short term parking structure. Remove all license plates and grind off all VIN numbers. Remove all identifying trash or paperwork. Leave the old vehicle behind. Go into the elevator with your spare change of clothes. Change clothes. Drive your new vehicle away. Donate your previous clothes to the fourth homeless person you see. Call the authorities at the airport and notify them of a perfectly safe abandonded car in the airport parking structure. For your own safety, do this call from a pay phone 30 miles from your current home.
4) Yes, you will need a new home. But buying one is out of the question. Think about homesteading in Wyoming.
5) Pills are good.
6) There is no number six.
7) Your wife and children know too much. Fortunately there are treatments to solve this problem. See step 5.
8) Design and study a new language; it must be unique and of your own design. Teach this language to the folks you do dealings with. This should assure that your overheard conversations will not be understood. Contrary to popular beliefs, it will not end up getting you on the local news as a creator of a new language; this happens all the time and is old hat by now.
