The Two Dollar Bill and the OFG

Post about everything from carrying a handkerchief to manly skills (sharpening a pocket knife, etc), to product reviews of items that may have slipped inder our radar (ie Grandpa's Pine Tar soap). No threads on anything 'new' unless it hearkens to old-fashioned sensibilities and ideals.

I know of a kindly OFG who keeps a wad of two dollar bills just to hand out to children.

I used to have a banker friend that carried small stacks that he ran through the notepad binder at his work. When he tipped someone he’d make sure they saw him peel it off the pad. It always seemed to wow people.

Gosh, no. Never. Ick. Tip money should be in your cigarette pocket precounted. I hand out two dollar bills because people are always delighted to see them and happily remember your face.
