Don, Those dudes try to send me those phony slugs they call yen and Hong Kong Dollars. <G> Nope, it isn't me. Video games are one of those things I recognize as an economic phenomenon, but have no interest in on a personal basis. Speaking of quarters, that reminds me of the Aggie who was in dire straits and had to become a prostitute. While walking the street, she met a veteran. "You are a real good looker, honey, and you should do well. Especially if you can hide that corny accent and get that vacant look out of your eyes." Several hours later, they met in a coffee shop. "How much did you make your first night?" "$450.25," Little Miss Aggie said. "Honey, that is great for your first night. But who gave you the quarter?" "All of them." <G> Of course, if you tell this story in College Station, Texas, the woman becomes a Texas Longhorn. But I heard it in Austin. MB
