You can get bitcoins either by purchasing them or by mining.

What is your interest?

Assuming you're in the US, sign up here, https://www.exchangebitcoins.com/, take your dollars to Chase or Wells Fargo and deposit them in their account, send them a copy of the deposit receipt and then you can buy Bitcoins.

Have fun...
