October 16, 201312 yr When that which should be yellow is instead green, a brief course of tetracycline may be indicated. Unless of course you buy the bit about Frank Baum's novel being an allegory of capitalism, perils of going off the gold standard, etc.
October 16, 201312 yr It's a walking path of a park that I found and they painted the walking path green so it reminded me of The Wizard of Oz.. It isn't yellow but somehow it the wizard of Oz came to my mind..
October 16, 201312 yr Gold doesn't tarnish? I was thinnin' of the at-the-time reviled substitution of greenbacks for gold.
October 16, 201312 yr Active Members Yes, of course, much reviled, especially by those who do not have any (or enough). Best regards, RA1
October 16, 201312 yr Somewhere in the attic amongst other juvenile jokes & novelties, I have an old dollar-bill parody which in place of "Silver Certificate" reads "Rubber Snapificate" and is of course printed on rubber instead of paper. Elsewhere in place of the standard text are several puns about how it will bounce, etc. View images of front and back here: http://currency.ha.com/c/item.zx?saleNo=34092&lotIdNo=8066 (Can't post the image directly because the image type is not supported here.) The one pictured here is issue of The Delighted States of Hysteria. Just recalled that mine is currency of The Untied States of Anemia -- rather more fitting for our times today, even though I got it back around 1972.
October 17, 201312 yr Active Members Sounds like a pretty nice trip! You may also want to keep an eye out for the Purple Panther.
October 17, 201312 yr P.S. Lucky graciously and laboriously found a way to post a pic of the rubber greenback here: http://www.boytoy.com/forums/index.php?/topic/16913-rubber-bill/#entry98468
