Steve,

Great point! I’m going to start looking for spare chips on the casino floor. Wish me luck!

So, what happened? Did people keep the poop-money? I’ll bet they did.

They would place the dollars on sidewalks and wait, live on the air, to see if someone would pick up the dollar and then what the reaction would be when the person realized it had poo on it. That has always stuck in my head and it would have to be a pretty big bill for me to consider picking it up.

I’ve definitely been at stages where coins helped out tremendously. Thanks for your honesty, and for your reading!

I love that you get pumped up finding a coin. I need to retrain my nervous system to get that excited. I make it way too difficult to feel good – thanks for the reminder!

Feel free to give them to me – I’ll use it to buy myself something nice. Like something gold I can hang around my neck. Because that’s a cool look for guys.

Did you also run down the street with a stick pushing a wheel rim? Wow – that’s old school. Ha. Thanks for reading!

I almost did go to a pretty famous cat-shrink, actually. It was going to cost like $600 and there was no guarantee. Thankfully the Prozac I squirt into her ears every evening works great. It’s cheaper and fun. Plus, I think a little gets onto my fingers and into my bloodstream, so that’s a bonus!
