   I have two United States coins that total 55 cents. One is not a nickel. What are the two coins?

   I once had a chain of change machines. Couldn’t make any money. I kept breaking even. I tried adding more machines, but still just broke even.

   I’ve run into some of those machines (mostly in airports) that give 90 or 95 cents on the dollar.

   How embarrassing to have to change in front of all those people.

    Great trick, but too bad it only works once.
