<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bobbeth87, post: 844480, member: 18369&quot;]Last week I was in a small town in Texas and checked a couple banks for half dollars looking for silver.&nbsp; I found about $10 of halves, but no silver.&nbsp; So, in another small town, I stopped at McDonalds and the bill was $3.20.&nbsp; I handed her 7 Kennedy half dollars and she gave me a nickel back.&nbsp; </p><p>Me:&nbsp; You still owe me a quarter</p><p>Her:&nbsp; Nawwwww, Really?</p><p>Me:&nbsp; Yes, I gave you 7 50 cent pieces.</p><p>She opened the drawer, and pulled them out.&nbsp; She put 3 sets of 2 halves together and stated, Nope, that is $3.25.</p><p>Me:&nbsp; No, it is $3.50.</p><p>Her:&nbsp; It is $3.25, this says &quot;half dollar.&quot;</p><p>Me:&nbsp; Exactly, half a dollar is 50 cents.&nbsp; So I gave you $3.50, not $3.25.</p><p>She looked at the coins for several seconds, then looked up and said, &quot;So, how much do I owe you?</p><p>Me: A quarter</p><p>She hesitated, then gave me a quarter.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Kids today.....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
