In lieu of the hat and beer, cash is acceptable...ummm, preferably in US dollars, please (hehe, if I took some Canadian money down to the bank here, they'd just look at me funny).

I have to actually be aware and conscience of the number on the money. It's a bit of a hassle, after being so familar with Canadian money. |

| | Well, you see, if someone has served you well (promptly, with curtosy, warm hands ) you, while not obligated, are expected to give them a tip in some material form (money, booze, sexual favours). | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread |  Linear Mode | |
