11 would be more like a butcher's dozen(ie thumb on the scale). Happy T-day

when I order sliced ham at the deli the girl usually give me one slice to eat while I wait. So my deli's one pound is actually 1 pound + weight of 1 slice of ham.

For Bakers, its a tangible marketing program. For Bankers, well they just don't do it.

Funny.....Bankers get it, and don't give it. They can lend 5x's their assets, with the backing of the Federal Reserve. Must be nice!
