A friend of a friend needed money a few years ago and being the nice person that I am
( spell that with a capital F for fool ) I gave him money three different times.
For security I was given silver bars Form Northwest Territorial Mint.
As I recall, silver was about forty dollars at the time so I felt comfortable with the deal.

Now the rest of the story. As it turned out, the money was for his lawyer.
When he was released from lock-up he didn't want his silver so I have some $42.65 silver if anybody would like some.
