I'll get it and you can open the safe and get change Manager: 'I'm not opening the safe with him in here.' Server: 'What should I do?' Manager: 'Tell him to come back later when he has real money.' Server: 'I can't tell him that! You tell him.' Manager: 'Just tell him.' Server: 'No way! This is weird. I'm going in back. " Got a little Captain in you? Custom Gulf Cars

My Dad left a strongbox to me after he died, I opened it several weeks later. What was in it? $2 bills! But not the new ones, the old ones from the 1950's. I think Dad was a bit confused toward the end, because my brother's the coin collector, and he got the woodworking tools! (we have since traded) My 7 yr-old nephew recently took one in for show-and-tell, and his 26 yr-old teacher sent him to the principal's office for "fibbing" when he tried to explain that it was genuine U.S. currency. Luckily the principal is over 40. ...........................Blueaxe You only let off the gas to keep the wheels from spinning... Timing is Everything

Then again, there was a guy back in the late '40s who punched out phony nickles - there was even a movie based around him). - at the same time, we've raised a pretty clueless generation (waaaay too dependant on electro-mechanicals). The manager should have at least been aware of this denomination (I would have taken it as payment and then kept it as a curiousity piece). The Barbarians are at the gate and the people standing watch can't figure out how to work the lock.

Dollars, old coins, etc.). She laughed when I told her this story. I am going to the bank today and ask for one and see if our local Taco Bell is as bad.

This is weird. I'm going in back. I'll tell ya...fellas......you're gonna want more cowbell! Rock legend Bruce Dickinson

That was where they used them! Art Love that spell checker!!!!

Same as yours. The kid had no idea what is was and refused to take it. The guy behind me offered to buy it for $10.00. It went back into the pocket. What kind of education are kids getting these days. Oh yeah, 'NO KID LEFT BEHIND", and don't cause them mental trama because they didn't win.
