Found $3 in the parking lot when I was getting lunch.

Was it all in pennies?

The natural history museum is on the list but is a maybe. I did hear the 1st lady dresses exhibit is pretty good. It's in the same museum as the Star Spangled Banner.

Having been there before, I know I'll cry when I see the WW1 and WW2 stuff at Air and Space, I'll sob when I leave the Lincoln Memorial, I'll cry at the Vietnam Wall, I'll cry at the WW2 and Korean War Memorials and I'll cry at the beauty of the White House. Also, I know I'll cry when I see the tattered Francis Scott Key flag, I'll cry when I see the changing of the guard, I'll cry when I see the eternal flame at the Kennedy grave sight, I'll cry at the Marines Momument, I'll cry at the MLK Monument, I'll cry when I see the Declaration of Independence, and I'll cry at the Holocaust Museum. Sounds like the best trip ever, doesn't it.
Just don't steal the Declaration of Independence again.

Hopefully it wasn't a $3 bill.

Double note time!
Working at the MA Historical Society, I looked around for a second while waiting for something I requested. Scholar at the next table over flipped their document to look at the backside.

I asked if that was her normal practice, and she said "It is if I want to find the national treasure."


Two: Saw a job listing for the National Archives. Couldn't help wondering if I would have to fight Nic Cage someday soon. Then I saw that the listing was for current employees only and stopped prepping for combat.
 
How queer! Was it a single bill?

Edit: ok, we've got the "odd" joke in here, the Spanish joke, and now the "three dollar bill" joke. Somewhere in there must be the prime number joke.
****! I missed this before posting. O well, I like my delivery better.

If you can't beat Nicholas Cage, then maybe you should join him.

Here's a old chestnut - a counterfeiter erred badly and printed a quantity of $18 bills. He thought he might have a way to get rid of them - take them deep into the South and see if he could pass them among those with maybe not such a great education.

He drove into Mississippi, and found a rickety old gas station. Perfect, he thought. Entering, he went to the counter, presented one of his counterfeits and asked the old man behind the counter if he could change it for smaller bills.

The hillbilly looked at the bill, and, without batting an eye, said, "Sure. Ya want two nines or three sixes?"

Shoot. I was hoping to steal the Declaration of Independence from you.

Wait. The National Archives is understaffed. This is do-able.
 
Team up, brah. You're on vacation and Erik is looking for some work of noble note.
I guess since we're stealing the Declaration of Independence for the good of the country it is noble. Does Eric look like Diane Kruger?
latest


I would totally steal the Declaration of Independence with Diane Kruger.
