Tourist: “Oh! I guess I did, unless you were paying me in pesos.”
Me: “Excuse me?” (WTF? We are a little far north of the border? Hello?!?)
Tourist: “Pesos. The money in Mexico.”
Me: “I know what a peso is, ma’am, but I’m not Mexican.”
Tourist: “Puerto Rican?”
Me: “Not even close.”
Tourist: “Cuban?”
Me: “No.”
Tourist: “What are you, then?”
Me: “I’m Native American, German and Irish."
Tourist: “So am I.” (Uhhhhh.....okay......)
Me: “No, Native like the people here before white people.”
Tourist: “What do you mean?”
Me: “You don’t know about Natives? Indians?”
Tourist: “Oh, you mean the people John Wayne killed off.”
Me: “Just take your change.” Like I said "oh My Gawd!
