2 dollar bill

When I was six years old an elderly lady sent me a dollar gold piece. It got lost when my children got into my jewelry case. She had received it as a wedding present in Baltimore, Maryland..( her cousin was the mother of Babe Ruth.) My dad stayed at her home when he was attending the school for blinded WW1 veterans in 1919. That was when he met Helen Keller. A lot of history there.

You don't like the colapse idea? I do. Absolute mayhem that would be 🙂

I can see the attraction. I'd miss the convience of the NHS when it comes to kids though. Still it'd be a more interesting enviorment to raise them and that is very important.

while the two dollar bill is considered special, its not. You can go to the bank and ask for a hundred of them-they have plenty.

they're favored for red envelopes.

i got 22.oo in red money this year from lan kwai ( my mother-in-law )..all you have to do is bring her an orange after new year and everytime you stop at her house with an orange she is required to give you the red money...what a deal...the orange costs a nickel and lan kwai has to give me alot of paper money for it...new years is a steal...

doesn't "lan kwai" mean "two dollars"?

lan kwai can be defined as trouble but not as two dollars

who knew?

The Canadian $2 bill, now out of circulation, was the crown jewel of the pecuniary kingdom. Behold! In all its reddish-brown glory:

As an interesting side note, this glorious bill was the sole currency used on The Kids In The Hall (legendary Toronto-based left-field sketch comedy show responsible for launching the careers of Mark McKinney, Kevin MacDonald, Dave Foley and Scott Thompson...Bruce McCullough was funny too, but let's be honest, who the hell even saw "Dog Park", let alone liked it?). Behold!

Take the 2 dollar bill and pay for your case of beer.

They hand you back change for a 20.

If they ask, you say.... "Oops, a 2 dollar bill? Who knew".

Profit, or try again. I've pulled it off 2 times, and called out once.
