Hey, ChrisBrewster! When the FBI swing by your place to check on where you got your information on Obama could you ask them about the counterfeit thing on behalf of John? Either way, not to worry since I hear there's free wireless in most federal prisons which means no blog down time. It's all good. And yes John, apparently some of us actually read the comments because we have the time to do so. Please refer to "How to Be Unemployed," John Shore, 2008.

Oh, and my mom made us kids stop the Delaware crossing after we capsized the couch. John,
Your comparisons are very insightful, although I thought Hillary’s teeth were more like fangs, but that’s just me.
Oh, and my mom made us kids stop the Delaware crossing after we capsized the couch.

You're totally right! Jackson IS on the $20! How totally lame of me. I wonder if anyone else will notice? (I've always wondered if anyone in the universe ever really reads these blog comments. Now I'm kind of hoping they DON'T. Cuz that whole finish is ruined if I go back and ... well, you see. It's unfixable. It NEEDS Franklin on the $20. I like the ending like it is. Bummer! Pretty funny, though. You know. In a really sad way. Thanks a LOT, Skerrib. I blame you. Again. Oh, no! You're totally right! Jackson IS on the $20! How totally lame of me.

Thanks a LOT, Skerrib.

I blame you. Again.

Franklin--isn't he on the $100? And isn't Jackson on the $20? Of course I don't know for sure...it's so rare that I see a $100 bill. I heard somewhere that the famous cherry tree incident never actually happened. Washington was a good man, but apparently not THAT good... Wait, wait, wait. Franklin–isn't he on the $100? And isn't Jackson on the $20? Of course I don't know for sure…it's so rare that I see a $100 bill.
