I got a buck-fifteen. Three quarters and four dimes. I can sit here and they don’t fall out until I stand up. ---

I’m just posting this because I felt it was a sign of disrespect to **UncleBeer** to let his post be the last listed post for that long in a thread with such a violently horrible title. ---

Stacked or side by side, it doesn’t really matter. I, however stacked mine and I think that may be the easiest way. I have a feeling I could get more in there, but I ran out of change. Yes, I was very bored. FairyChatMom: You are 100% correct. I laughed my ass off listening to that. I don’t care how infantile the humor was. Damn that was funny.
