Can’t Count

Speaking of Philip, after getting his glasses fixed at the mall the other day, we stopped at the news stand to buy a newspaper. Reminiscent of a previous post, I found out more people can’t count!

Philip pulled out his change holder, counted out some change for the paper and put it on the counter telling the clerk “there, I think that’s fifty cents”.

The clerk counted it and said “yeah, that’s it”.

Of course, I had to butt in.

“Um, that sure did look like sixty cents to me!”

Sure enough, the clerk didn’t even recount the money. He just agreed and handed Philip back a dime!

Even the great ones have a bad day, huh brother? I told you that this story had to make the blog!
