A WALLETFUL OF TWO-DOLLAR BILLS

Dick Johnson forwarded this amusing article: "A wallet full of
two-dollar bills is like carrying around a wallet of joy. People
get excited with unexpected encounters of two-dollar bills, and
for some people it's just the regular course. The two-dollar
adventure unfolds many personality traits.

"First I walk into my bank and deposit a check like normal. After
taking care of official adult business, the cashier asks the typical
'is there anything else I can do for you today, Mr. Maldre?' For
all those times I've been asked that question, I finally have a
'yes' reply, and this time the request is a fun one!

"'Actually, I would like to take all the money in my wallet,' as
I pause while I notice that the cashier is starting to smile now,
'and convert it it all into two-dollar bills.

"First place to spend the two-dollar bill? Sportmart. To get my
baseball to have everyone I know sign. And wouldn't you know it?
They have baseballs there for two bucks. Perfect!

"The cashier rang up my ball, and I go into my wallet and pull out
a crisp two-dollar bill. The cashier was astonished, 'Are you sure
you want to spend this?' I showed him the inside of my wallet. 'Look
inside, I just went to the bank and exchanged out ALL my money for
two-dollar bills. I certainly have plenty.' This cashier dude was
so excited to have a two-dollar bill, he asked his boss (who was
standing right there) if he could exchange it out with his own money
(his boss did). Then the other three cashiers were all curious and
came over to see what was happening. They all found it very amusing
and we swapped two-dollar bill stories.

"I highly highly (yes, that's a double recommendation) anyone to
exchange all your money in your wallet for two-dollar bills. It's
like carrying a walletful of joy ready to unfold adventures where
you'll get your two-cent's worth."
