Stopped at the convenience store to get a coffee on my way to work this morning... The cashier was arguing with some kid, when I got to the counter and realized what it was about I almost dropped my coffee as my heart skipped a beat... I am a regular and familiar with the cashier so I asked what's up... The cashier said the kid was trying to pass counterfeit money, the kid turned around and showed me what he had in his hand... It was actually 2 Morgan's and 5 peace dollars... I asked him if it would help if I gave him the seven dollars for them and he agreed... He bought his cigarettes and went on his way...

I just got home from work and got my first real look at them... Couldn't be happier...

Now all I need is the snow to go away and the ground to thaw so I can get out and detect...

The OP clearly should have immediately roundhouse kicked the coins out of his hand and while they were still in the air shoot each one through the center with his revolver. At the same time grabbing him by his shirt and asking him in all the excitement he can't remember how many shots he fired. And ask him do you feel lucky punk? I'm sure that's what any reasonable t-netter would do.

Well, yeah. For the keyboard-warriors anyway. :laughing7:

Hey now!!!! I'm tough sitting in this chair, typing on this computer! I was shadow boxing it earlier! Making muscles in the computer screen reflection!!:laughing7:

I'm going to play "walk" by Pantera to get hyped up! :laughing7:

I don't want to turn it up too loud though my wife gets mad!

Too funny! Reminds me..as a kid my dad told us to quit messing with people on the CB radio. We refused to stop. The Cb sat right beside a window, We were messing with a guy one night and told him,"oh ya? Tough guy! Wait till we find you!" All of a sudden hands come through the open window and grabbed me! It was one of my dads friends! We quit after that! lol Needed clean shorts too!

I am like many folks -- if given too much change in error by a worker --I would point it out and return the excess --knowing the "worker" would have to make it good from their paycheck or maybe even lose their job ...however if offered silver at face value or less than full silver value , most likely I would buy it -- its the sellers "duty" to know the value of what he is selling ...the art buying and selling of items and making a profit by doing so ---demands that you buy for less than the "real" value and then either get the "real value --or above it" when selling .. when bargaining with another its not your duty to "wise up" the other guy -- you ask what they want and either take the offer ,or leave it or counter offer in some cases...
