When the pile is big enough to be worth stealing, it's too big to steal. :smack:

But how many pennies would it take to buy one of those? Or would you have to steal that too?

:confused:

I think the whole thing is more trouble than it is worth.

Pay all my overdue parking tickets in DC. I'll just write a check for the difference.

You could sell them to the government at face value because it would be cheaper for them than making new ones... win - win. ;)

Um... you realize his post is 12 years old, right? ;)

yes, the main reason I miss him. I don't see his name pop up often, it did, I remembered him, noted as such.
