Umm, your opinion is only worth what I paid for it... ===== V. Kurt, yes, I have mentioned that inconvenient fact in my posts last month -- no...
I wrote my rant for CT-er's under 30, whose formative childhoods were spent in the most prosperous, liberal, and accommodating society in the...
Read the Wikipedia entry on "Legal Tender" and you may withdraw some of your comments. Our government would like to track every dime you spend,...
How much money are we talking? He's under no obligation to combine, of course. In the good old days, you could roast him with Feedback, but no...
Rick, I sure hope you are right. We (and the world in general) are moving toward a War on Cash, and there are so many tracking, hacking, and...
They DO make aluminum rounds, LOL -- all those hundreds of designs of Mardi Gras tokens ("throws") of the past 10, 20, 30 years. Some of the...

Only if you're willing to work for $1 an hour.

I hope this means that PayPal is no longer more or less the mandatory means of payment for eBay lots. Some of my Buy-It-Now items I will demand a...
