It popped up on SUNDAY, Jan 27th, appearing to kick off a week of bounty. "Au contraire," Val grouses from her lair. "This was it!"
The clerk who didn't even wait on Val saw her taking the picture of this 1994 Abe-doing-a-headstand. "Oh, another penny?" She knows what's up! I was going to step to her line, since the ticket display is now up on the window on that side. But another guy beat me to it. THEN I had to wait for him to leave so I could take my picture, and more importantly, snatch that penny right out from under his obliviousness.
I don't know if that's Abe's actual position. Without my glasses, I couldn't tell. And sometimes my phone flips an image 180. Just ask The Pony's monthly mobile deposit checks.

How are you going to be a pennyillionaire at this rate?!!
ReplyDeleteSlower than expected, I guess!
DeleteEmployment is up, wages are up, Wall Street is up, Penny finding is down...it's been a sad week for the economy.
ReplyDeleteYes, because we know it's ALL ABOUT ME!
DeleteIf it helps, I found a twenty cent coin in my garden, it was so dark and dirty, it must have been hidden under the surface for years. Impossible to get it clean, so I may just put it back.
ReplyDeleteOr you could start a garden coin collection. I'm sure Hick could find you a goblet to hold them.
DeleteYou need to get out more! I find parking lots to be fairly productive as long as you don't get run over.
ReplyDeleteI get out once a day for my 44 oz Diet Coke, and go to about 3 places. More would seem like work! I think if a penny is meant for me, it will appear without any effort on my part.
DeleteI was in Minnesota since Thursday with NO INTERNET. I cleaned my son's house with the help of his sisters. I thought about you every time I found a penny on the floor. I mentioned you when I picked up the 10th penny. My son-in-law was fascinated when I told him that you keep a running total. My in-law children are more apt to listen to me than my children!
ReplyDeleteI am brainwashing people from considerable distances! I know what you mean about the attentiveness. Friend is more likely to listen to me than Genius. Who we both call a pompous ass at opportune times.
