...but Kennedy was Canadian.

[A man is paying for his meal at the local McDonald's, he hands the cashier his money, which includes a fifty-cent piece. The cashier begins to sort the money into her drawer.]

Cashier (holding half-dollar coin): Hey... what is this, sir?
Man: It's a half-dollar.
Cashier: But how much is it worth?
Man: 50 cents, honey.
Cashier: Are you sure it's American?
Man: Yeah, it's got JFK on it, they used to make them.
Cashier: Oh, you mean, like a special coin for a year or something.
Man: No, honey, like always.
[Cashier proceeds to put the coin in her drawer.]
Cashier: You're sure it's American?

...I overheard Katherine turn the television on this afternoon:
"Bobby, would you like to demonstrate for us why we never play in the subway tunnel?!?"
