    This “joyfulness” stuff sounds suspicious to me. And Flicka Dicka Doo sounds creepy. I’m going to sit at another table….

    The funny money on the blog is a National Bank Note. This one was issued in 1902. There’s a quick description here:

    http://www.collectorsweekly.com/us-paper-money/national-bank-notes

    Basically, under the National Currency Act of 1863, the Federal government would give a state bank one hundred dollars for every ninety dollars worth of Federal bonds the bank purchased. The government printed up the notes for the banks, which paid them out to depositors. It was a way to help expand the money supply at a time when we were still on the gold standard.

    I really didn’t need to see the loose tooth video. I have a bit of a phobia about stuff like that. Now I’ll have nightmares.

    Teresa: See the wikipedia article on National Bank Notes. That’s a nice specimen that recently sold for a cool quarter million.

    RADIOCARBON DATING – probably says more about me than anything else, but I found your comment to be on my list of the funniest things you’ve ever posted. And you had great delivery of that line in my mind’s ear.

    Wish I could use radiocarbon dating to locate my date. I don’t remember her or where I left her or … well, I just don’t remember anything about her at all.

    A Kinshasa favorite is plantains fried in red palm oil. Or anything cooked with red palm oil, but plantains are especially divine. Bananas that were purchased too green and will not ripen properly can be cooked the same way, with heavenly results, and I suppose ripe ones (but not over-ripe) would be equally pleasing.

    The painting “Trapped” is eerily reminiscent of a sculpture done by my father entitled “Shrouds of Illusions”. My favorite piece, I gave it to someone who had a significant impact on my life.

    Vaughn Monroe was a popular singer from the 40s. His big hit, as I recall, was “Racing with the Moon.”

    Old Wolf, yeah. When I lived in Panama back in the early 70s, fried plantains were everywhere. Kinda hard to find them here in Indiana now.But the real question, given their instructions to fry until tender is, “How much more tender can a banana get?”

    Re: Secesh fever on the blog. The Supreme Court ruled in 1869 that secession was unconstitutional:

    Plus, um, guys? It’s been tried. It didn’t work. And if you somehow pull it off, don’t come back in a year asking for foreign aid.

    I’ll have to admit to having ambivalent feelings about these secessionists… On the one hand I’m as upset about the NDAA and the Patriot Act as anyone and I dislike the TSA so much that I’ve driven out of the country to catch a plane. On the other hand it looks like these were all people who expected their man to win th election (and for everyone else to accept the results when it happened) but now that they didn’t get what they want they want to renege on their half of the deal… and That Is Not Fair!Besides, as a matter of practicality, I have to observe that most of these are the states that get more from the federal government than they pay in and it’s unlikely that the rest of the people in those states would be willing to accept extra debt at this point in history…

    RE: “Lightweight Motorcycle” in the Blog. It brought back memories of my first bike, in the UK in the early 60s – a pretty primitive (no rear suspension) Indian ‘Brave’, I think, but I still loved it.
