I posted about this back in May, but since the new money is almost a reality I thought I’d post about it again. And now I have a bigger picture. 🙂 The first of America’s greenbacks to be colorized — the $20 note sporting splashes of peach, blue and yellow — will start appearing next… Continue reading Multi-Colored U.S. Currency Almost Here

The Hits Man
Congrats to my brother Tony on his 10,000th visitor (per SiteMeter) at his blog, Technically Speaking. Here’s to the next 10K.

What a waste of my… Continue reading The Hits Man
