    Thank you for saying so. This nonsense as noted above has been aimed at me more than once for finding nice coins in a Coinstar machine. Collectible coins from a tip jar is just a lagniappe of the job; there are always the spoilsports anywhere you go, though. Put him on ignore.

    "Don't eat yellow snow" was one I always used to hear. (Not that it snows here anyway.)

    In retrospect, it does seem strange, particularly since his HQ is only an hour to an hour and a half's drive from here, so you'd think he'd have had a car. Maybe he did, and someone else in his party was using it. Dunno. Seemed a short notice kinda thing, him needing that ride.

    I don't think it was a surprise visit, since the store just did a "soft reopening" yesterday, I think they called it. Whatever that means. Some kind of rehearsal for a bigger reopening this weekend, I gather.

    You've got to be kidding! Do you know how many workers in fast-food joints and convenience stores don't even know that the US issues two-dollar bills?

    Note to self: Stay the hell out of Mingo Junction, Ohio. If they think nothing of cheating their co-workers, what do you think they'd do to customers?

    Yeah, I'd bet that if you saw a little 80 year-old lady drop a $20 bill on the sidewalk, you'd probably stand on it until she was out of sight.

    Go ahead and put me on ignore. I'll still be able to point out people like you and Zako with no morals. You just won't know it.

    Classic. That'll be in my head for the remainder of the evening. Jim Croce?

    Edit: yep. Good stuff. :headphone::singing:

    Frank Zappa made that classic. But there’s plenty of yellow snow here all winter

    You are hilarious!

    I guess I should have let this sit in a record bin when I saw an original of this priced at 88¢ back in 1960. I sold it on eBay for $125, so I must really be missing the morals, eh?

    Also good stuff.

    My cat's name is Bo. That's short for Bojangles, but I often call him "Bo Diddley", just because I like the sound of it.

    He's making a move on my unattended burritos as I type this.

    *sssssst!*

    Get'way from dat, Bo Diddley!

    You too, Clyde!

    Who knows about these things. I once saw Julio Gallo’s daughter and her husband (they are worth millions) leave a wine festival in a plain dirty old cab to take them to the airport. Why they didn’t have a limo or at least a car service I have no idea. Maybe somebody forgot to schedule it.
