THE $2.00 BILL I TRIED TO SPEND:IF YOU'RE AS OLD AS I AM, THIS IS A RIOT!Everyone should start carrying $2 bills! I'm STILL laughing!!I think we need to quit saving our $2 bills and bring them out in public. The younger generation doesn't even know they exist!STORY: On my way home from work, I stopped at Taco Bell for a quick bite to eat. I have a $50 bill and a $2 bill. I figure with the $2 bill, I can get something to eat and not have to worry about irritating anyone for trying to break a $50 bill.Me: 'Hi, I'd like one seven-layer burrito please, to go.'Server: 'That'll be $1.04. Eat in?'Me: 'No, it's to go.' At this point, I open my billfold and hand him the $2 bill. He looks at it kind of funny.Server: 'Uh, hang on a sec, I'll be right back.'He goes to talk to his manager, who is still within my earshot. The following conversation occurs between the two of them:Server: 'Hey, you ever see a $2 bill?'Manager: 'No. A what?'Server: 'A $2 bill. This guy just gave it to me...'Manager: 'Ask for something else. There's no such thing as a $2 bill.'Server: 'Yeah, thought so.'He comes back to me and says, 'We don't take these. Do you have anything else?'Me: 'Just this fifty. You don't take $2 bills? Why?Server: 'I don't know.'Me: 'See here where it says legal tender?'Server: 'Yeah.'Me: 'So, why won't you take it?'Server: 'Well, hang on a sec.'He goes back to his manager, who has been watching me like I'm a shoplifter, and says to him, 'He says I have to take it.'Manager: 'Doesn't he have anything else?'Server: 'Yeah, a fifty. 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.The manager approaches me and says,'I'm sorry, but we don't take big bills this time of night.'Me: 'It's only seven o'clock! Well then, here's a two dollar bill.'Manager: 'We don't take those, either.'Me: 'Why not?'Manager: 'I think you know why.'Me: 'No really, tell me why.'Manager: 'Please leave before I call mall security.'Me: 'Excuse me?'Manager: 'Please leave before I call mall security.'Me: 'What on earth for?'Manager: 'Please, sir..'Me: 'Uh, go ahead, call them.'Manager: 'Would you please just leave?'Me: 'No.'Manager: 'Fine -- have it your way then.'Me: 'Hey, that's Burger King, isn't it?'At this point, he backs away from me and calls mall security on the phone around the corner. I have two people staring at me from the dining area and I begin laughing out loud, just for effect.A few minutes later this 45-year-oldish guy comes in.Guard: 'Yeah, Mike, what's up?'Manager (whispering): 'This guy is trying to give me some (pause) funny money.'Guard: 'No kidding! What?'Manager: 'Get this. A two dollar bill.'Guard (incredulous): 'Why would a guy fake a two dollar bill?'Manager: 'I don't know. He's kinda weird. He says the only other thing he has is a fifty.'Guard: 'Oh, so the fifty's fake!'Manager: 'No, the two dollar bill is.'Guard: 'Why would he fake a two dollar bill?'Manager : 'I don't know! Can you talk to him, and get him out of here?'Guard: 'Yeah.'Security Guard walks over to me and......Guard: 'Mike here tells me you have some fake bills you're trying to use.'Me: 'Uh, no.'Guard: 'Lemme see 'em.'Me: 'Why?'Guard: 'Do you want me to get the cops in here?'At this point I'm ready to say, 'Sure, please!' but I want to eat, so I say, 'I'm just trying to buy a burrito and pay for it with this two dollar bill.I put the bill up near his face, and he flinches like I'm taking a swing at him. He takes the bill, turns it over a few times in his hands, and he says, 'Hey, Mike, what's wrong with this bill?'Manager: 'It's fake.'Guard: 'It doesn't look fake to me.'Manager: 'But it's a two dollar bill.'Guard: 'Yeah? 'Manager: 'Well, there's no such thing, is there?'The security guard and I both look at him like he's an idiot and it dawns on the guy that he has no clue and is an idiot.So, it turns out that my burrito was free, and he threw in a small drink and some of those cinnamon thingies, too.Made me want to get a whole stack of two dollar bills just to see what happens when I try to buy stuff.Just think... those two are of the age to be voting!!!NOW do you understand why and how Obama got a 2nd term?

I don't really get this.
WAL-MART VS. THE MORONS (NOT A JOKE)I know lots of folks don't like Wal-Mart, but this is fascinating.This is spot-on.PLEASE, READ THIS TO THE END. IT IS VERY INTERESTING!!!Wal-Mart vs. The Morons1. Americans spend $36,000,000 at Wal-Mart Every hour of every day.2. This works out to $20,928 profit every minute!3. Wal-Mart will sell more from January 1 to St. Patrick's Day (March17th) than Target sells all year.4. Wal-Mart is bigger than Home Depot + Kroger + Target +Sears + CostcoK-Mart combined.5. Wal-Mart employs 1.6 million people, is the world's largest privateemployer, and most speak English.6. Wal-Mart is the largest company in the history of the world.7. Wal-Mart now sells more food than Kroger and Safeway combined, andkeep in mind they did this in only fifteen years.8. During this same period, 31 big supermarket chains soughtbankruptcy.9. Wal-Mart now sells more food than any other store in the world.10. Wal-Mart has approx 3,900 stores in the USA of which 1,906 areSuper Centers; this is 1,000 more than it had five years ago.11. This year 7.2 billion different purchasing experiences will occurat Wal-Mart stores. (Earth's population is approximately 6.5 Billion.)12. 90% of all Americans live within fifteen miles of a Wal-Mart.You may think that I am complaining, but I am really laying the groundwork for suggesting that MAYBE we should hire the guys who run Wal-Martto fix the economy.This should be read and understood by all Americans… Democrats,Republicans, EVERYONE!!To President Obama and all 535 voting members of the Legislature,it is now official that the majority of you are corrupt morons:a. The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775. You have had 234years to get it right and it is broke.b. Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 74 years toget it right and it is broke.c. Fannie Mae was established in 1938. You have had 71 years to getit right and it is broke.d. War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 45 years to get itright; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to"the poor" and they only want more.e. Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 44years to get it right and they are broke.f. Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 39 years to getit right and it is broke.g. The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen ourdependence on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of$24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 32 years to getit right and it is an abysmal failure.You have FAILED in every "government service" you have shoved down ourthroats while overspending our tax dollars.AND YOU WANT AMERICANS TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTEDWITH A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM??Folks, keep this circulating. It is very well stated. Maybe it will endup in the e-mails of some of our "duly elected' (they never read anything)and their staff will clue them in on how Americans feel.ANDI know what's wrong. We have lost our minds to "Political Correctness"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Someone please tell me what is wrong with all the people thatrun this country!!!!!!We're "broke" and can't help our own Seniors, Veterans, Orphans, Homelessetc. and the last months we have provided aid to Haiti, Chile, and Turkey and nowPakistan ( the previous home of bin Laden). literally, BILLIONS of DOLLARS!!!Our retired seniors living on a 'fixed income' receive no aid nor dothey get any breaks.AMERICA: a country where we have homeless without shelter, childrengoing to bed hungry, elderly going without needed medicines, and mentally illwithout treatment, etc.Imagine if the GOVERNMENT gave U. S. the same support they give toother countries. Sad isn't it?*99% of the people receiving this message won't have the guts to forward this.*I'm one of the 1% -- I Just DidBEING UNITED SAVES AMERICA!
