I bet I can tell you what you will be doing 629 years from now. Well, maybe not me, but the U.S. Mint has plans for what you will be doing.

OldDan, I bet you could win money telling people this story and when they say your nuts, produce the article LOL......How many Whitmans to house this collection,(of course the Fed albums only $4.95 plus $170.00 shipping)! Not to mention the number of generations it will have to be passed on to! Mike

Oh my gosh, the onion is so good! I am sitting at my computer laughing- for real. Just the right tone...the author is a comic whiz.
Thanks for posting!

"The U.S. Mint has designed a folder for collecting and displaying the county pennies. The cardboard murals, measuring 8 feet by 35 feet, will be available at most Walgreens stores, or directly from the Mint by mail for $4.95 plus $179 for postage and handling."

That's hilarious!! Wonder when they'll get to the Indiana counties? Or better yet, I wonder when one of my not-too-swift customers will hear about this and ask me to start saving these "pennies" for them! And where on Earth would I keep a 35-foot album!?
