<<and you say, "Why ten dollars of course", or no, I guess that's me.>>

No, one time I went for $30, a twenty and a ten and was offered it. Then I asked for a five and gave a lecture to a pair of empty heads. Sonofabitch. Outta high school and can't make change without a calculator?

I have a real strong feeling we need to get back to reading, writing and arithmetic as the basics. Cyber your ass off in the third realm of computer stuff but you gotta know the basics. Basics are missing.
