[Silound]

When I waited tables in college, I had a regular who always came to have a couple drinks. He was a regular traveler on toll roads, and he always carried $2 bills and Susan B's or Sacajawea's for toll booths that were self-service.

After he retired, he said he had something like $1500 in assorted unusual types of currency. We were laughing about it one day, and somehow that unusual currency became part of my regular tips.

I saved almost all of them, mostly for the novelty of keeping them. Now I've got a box full of it all in my safe as a memory.
