New $1 Coin

Zachary Taylor? Really? How about Teddy Roosevelt? At least most people could think of one thing he did without resorting to Wikipedia.

The new money is ODD. I got my first 2010 penny today and I had play money when I was little that felt more real. The dollar may not be worth much, but I'd like to at least feel like the currency isn't made by some yahoo with a tin can press in their basement.

There are several different new pennies, but I swear one of them looks a bit like something I got in a crackerjack box in the 1970s. I kind of like the "unfinished Capitol" reverse.

And is it tacky of me to ask if you're still reading Criminal Minds fic? I didn't know if you'd seen that there's more Transformations up.

I saw the new penny. I call shenanigans. That is not real money.

Hi! It's not tacky at all. I don't spend as much time on the 'net in the summer (I garden), so I'm way behind in my reading. I still will read CM and will look for your latest update, it will give me something fun to look forward to :-)
