Arrrr, Some Booty!

I was in line at the bank yesterday.

The man in front of me walked up to the counter, plunked down a wad of $50 bills, and said to the teller, "Can I get change for these bills? I'd like it all in gold-colored coins - Sacagawea dollar coins, please."

"Do they all have to be Sacagaweas?" asked the teller, opening her drawer. "I might not have enough. I have some American Silver Eagle dollar coins, the silver-colored ones. Are those ok?"

"No," said the man decisively. "They have to be gold-colored. I have a wooden chest at home, and I want to fill it with gold-looking coins so when people come over, it looks like I have a chest full of treasure."

I'd say "only in New York," but I think Vegas would get insulted.

Maybe he's going to sink it in his fish tank!

Think how much he could accomplish with his obviously ample time and wealth. ;^)

That's cool, but the cashier should have said "you already do sir"

We all have a chest full of treasure

It's true, each of us has a chest full of heart and that my friend is a treasue to be sure.

That's freaking awesome! It's also a good reason to never actually go IN the bank!
