My buddy and I were at lunch the other day and pulled our wallets out to leave a tip. He asked if I had any "bullets". The young waitress walked up about that time and looked puzzled. She asked "bullets"?
My buddy said, "singles...one dollar bills". She said she had never heard them called bullets and that she didn't think we looked like guys who would shoot the place up.

Everything was not so correct in those times. Things certainly were simpler. I started out on a construction site when I was 16.
