docc Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 Your secret is safe with us (here on the World-Wide-Web) . . .
MartyNZ Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) Im going to start two new companies- 1- a moving company to pack all those who threatened to move out of the country if their person didnt win- 2-a brick manufacturing company for when they build the wall!!! I ll make a fortune- Wages commensurate with experience/education, 9 weeks maternity leave, HEALTH CARE, paid vacations. Accepting applications now! Good Plan JRD.Can I partner with you? I'll set up a refugee camp on my back lawn for the displaced US citizens. You can send them over to me, but they can only stay till 'Merica is great again. (Not that USA is not already great; that phrase confuses many people in other countries. All USA needs is to get rid of 1 cent coins, and adopt the metric system). Hopefully that will only take a few months. The downside for my dog, is he wouldn't be able to run around the house anymore. He would only be able to ran, 'cause it's past tents.

docc Posted November 9, 2016 Posted November 9, 2016 'cause it's past tents. As long as your dog sticks to past tents and isn't inclined to taste pants . . .

That slogan confuses me as well. I am down with getting rid of the penny, but I am not sure about the metric system. I still think it might be a fad........
Chuck Posted November 21, 2016 Posted November 21, 2016 Well, you used to be able to drill a hole in a penny and have a copper washer. Not any more.. I don't know what they make em out of, but it's not copper.
gstallons Posted November 21, 2016 Posted November 21, 2016 I am pretty sure it is copper clad aluminum.
Scud Posted November 22, 2016 Posted November 22, 2016 US pennies are mostly zinc. You could grind 'em up, add some chromate and make yourself some poisonous primer. Pennies and $1.00 bills are both wasteful items and it's time to move on. The penny could be easily eliminated and the paper 1-dollar replaced with a coin - ideally one that does not cost $1.15 to produce. The last two 1-dollar coin attempts have failed to get wide circulation: Susan B. Anthony (US women's rights activist), and Sacagawea (native American female scout that guided Lewis and Clark, two white men, through western territory). In the US, we seem to prefer "dead presidents" on our money. Except for the $100 bill which features Benjamin Franklin, who was never president. From the song: Well, I ain't broke, but I'm badly bent Everybody love them dead presidents 1
LowRyter Posted November 22, 2016 Posted November 22, 2016 well, wow maybe should XXXX off ZZZz XXXX too...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Scud Posted November 22, 2016 Posted November 22, 2016 Amending my earlier post... Alexander Hamilton (on US $10 note) was never president either. And according to the NY Times, we'll see Harriet Tubman, an African-American female, on the US $20 note - but not for a while yet. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/21/us/women-currency-treasury-harriet-tubman.html?_r=0
Kiwi_Roy Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Hey, you had metric money long before most others. Sent from my shoe phone! 1
