I tip good!
Those three little words, ladies and gentleman, are words to live by! I saw it with my own eyes this weekend. There we were, at a seafood resturaunt after the cruise at the Turkey Run. A very nice cruise through a state park, by the way. Anyway, there we were, after a day at the Turkey Run, the Pro-Touring.com gang taking up half the place. Everyone was hungry. Bill Howell walks in and announces to the wait staff that he tips well. He does say it once. He says it numerous times. Everyone has a nice laugh about it until Bill's food arrives earlier than anyone elses. So much so that Bill (known hereafter as Tip) FINISHES his meal BEFORE anyone else is served!
I have learned from the master. If you are in a crowded resturaunt with a large group of people and you want to eat in a reasonable amount of time, make sure the waitress knows that you tip good!
Bill, you rock!

If you’re suggesting sending men with weapons of war to take my weapons of war,then I’m fairly certain that’s what’s called an act of war… and the definition of tyranny.which coincidentally is the reason for the second amendment to begin with!

I will say, Bill is a sweet guy. After he finished eating, and our food wasn't there yet, he offered me a french fry. What a guy!

I'm sure it was very good. Every time I shake Bill's hand, loose change runs down his pant leg. The harder I squeeze, the more change that drops! I once collected a whole $1.28!

I paid for Bob's meal and my meal, plus the desserts Jim forgot to mention. Not only did I offer him fries, I also got him a piece of Keylime pie. Originally Posted by derekf

I didn't forget to mention the pie! The story isn't as good when you mention that! I wouldn't pick on you if I didn't love you, Bill!
Oh yeah, thanks for the pie!Jim
