[QUOTE="NOS, post: 1401858, member: 2098"]I have lost a lot of respect for both "Rick" and the Amish looking expert. I saw an episode a few days ago where someone brought in a White House pass and an ID card for a guy who was an attorney general and Senator back in the 50s. The guy also brought in a counterfeit $10 bill that was blank on the front and was signed by this Senator and several other people decades ago. Right off the bat Rick says it is a "felony" to own counterfeit currency. He brings in his Amish looking expert to go over the documents and asks if it would be legal for him to buy the fake yet signed $10 bill.
