My (late, 2020) WWII Dad who served in the Navy, in both the Atlantic and the Pacific theatres, took a job as a "cabbie" in Pittsburgh.
He never forgot the 2 biggest tips he ever received.
One was from (the real) Colonel Sanders of Kentucky Fried Chicken. 5 bucks.
Said, "go buy yourself a house, kid."
And, Bing Crosby, who my Dad took to Pennsylvania Station.
He didn't recall the amount, but said he never saw blue eyes like THAT before!
Morale of this story.
Thanks to THE 2025 PASSAGE OF THE BBB for No Tax On Tips.
How can anyone find fault with THAT?!?
