I needed a bit of fluff to get my mind off of Iraq...
Yes folks the new 10 dollar bills are in, so take your old ones and torch 'em! Because Lord knows, we needed to issue new cash. Last Thursday the Federal Reserve sent out 800 million of the new bills, and they should soon be coming to a Wal-Mart near you.
On a historical note; any one remember the Civil War? When, on its last legs, the Confederacy was issuing worthless money in an attempt to keep its war machine moving? Not saying that we're doing that or anything, I'm only saying it reminded me of that.
I must admit they are pretty, just don't expect them to spontaneously turn into Euros.
