I was going to go the Pit to whine about this Canadian Penny in my pocket, but I thought it would be better to be positive and do something constructive, so here’s the thing.
I got this Canadian Penny back in change at some point, but I don’t know when I got it since I’m not always so careful about examining change. I don’t know what to do with this penny since nobody in NYC accepts Canadian Pennies. They’re not really worth a cent here. (BTW, isn’t it funny how folks in other countries will gripe about Americans, but they all take American money. Yet in America, nobody takes any other country’s currency?) Anyway, I could get upset about this Penny I can’t spend, or I could use it for something positive.
Does anyone have any ideas what to do with this penny better than giving it to charity and letting the charity figure out what to do with the penny? (Maybe I should give it to a Canadian charity…)
Invent a magic trick where you take a worthless Canadian coin and transform it into the uber-valuable American penny before people’s very eyes. Sign up “investors” for this get rich quick scheme for a ground floor opportunity at only $199.95
Put it in your pocket with an American penny and walk around all day being tittilated by the idea of Lincoln and Elizabeth II rubbing up against each other so close to your naughty bits.
