    Prost!

    Why step over the dollar to get to the cent? Because it's a 55DDO.

    Great, now we can get back to normal posts like how much did you make flipping mint coins this year.

    At least until next week when Bear gets to 40,000 posts.

    This one is for you bear:


    Bear in a Bar

    This bear walks into a bar. Then he sits down and orders a beer.
    The bartender, amazed that this bear can actually talk, gives him a beer.

    The bear says, "What do I owe you?"

    The bartender stops and thinks for a moment.

    "Even though this bear is smart," thinks the bartender, "he probably hasn’t been in many bars."

    So the bartender says, "That'll be ten dollars."

    The bear forks over the money and starts drinking his beer.

    After a few minutes, the bartender can't restrain his curiosity, so he walks back over to the bear and tries to strike up a conversation.

    "You know, we don't get many bears in this bar."

    The bear looks up from his beer and says, "Well, at ten bucks a beer, I'm not surprised."
