Looney + Tooney are the silliest names for coinage.  I still remember that lady @ the arcade in Toronto... "You want a Tooney or two Looneys?"  I was like wtf are you talking about.  Pretty coin tho :)

edit- ohh just read the link.. so it\'s a pissing competition for who\'s dollah is worth more ehh?  We can begin this fight after I pay off my credit cards in 2056.

I loved American cash when I went on vacation there last year. All the bills were real nice compared to the coinage Canada lugs around. It gets ridiculous some times, plus its hard to sneak by hobos. They know you have money, they can hear it.

The bills have a flaw though... They\'re all the same size, so it\'s easier to make a mistake.

Thats very true. I\'m also use to looking for colours rather than numbers.

The US is realizing that multi colored bills are much more secure than non... hence the new redesigns:

Sept 2007 ($5):


Already out ($10):


Already out ($50):


Money will get more colorful and incorporate more security until we can get a secure digital monitary format or trackable id chip into every bill.

And with today\'s political climate, wouldn\'t it be nice with digital money and/or trackable id chips. :D

I refuse to live on a grid like that. I\'d feel like the government is watching me. Then they\'d be able to beam in propaganda through the chips and we will all become slaves.
