You wanna get slapped? Are you out of your mind?

I rather go with Aunt Esther

[GOYAKLA]

Good choice . #2 would be Moms Mabley.

[Kaslin]

you really want to get slapped, don't you? LOL

Okay enough of this.

Changing subject. Watch for next thread

Rather than waste our money on yet another senseless currency redesign, how about if they did something useful like re-introducing the $500 and $1000 bill? They could put a woman on it, and I wouldn’t give a damn.

Martha Washington was the first woman pictured on the $10.00 bill.

Okay, I know it's a twenty but ....

[zeugma]

let's put S.E. Cupp on the $10 bill! :p

She'd have to be dead. I'd prefer to wait on that a bit.

Correction:

Martha Washington $1.00 bill.

[Disambiguator]

My vote goes to Bo Derek. She is a “10” after all, right?

[zeugma]

Hedy Lamarr. Brains, beauty, and helped the war effort.

I'm all for that.

“While we’re at it, why doesn’t the government just give women a 78-cent note and call it a dollar?”

That’s a great idea! And she can be standing holding a tray with a beer and a sandwich!

[Gideon7]

Hedy Lamarr. Famous actress, genius, WW2 weapon designer, inventor of WiFi, patriot, and basically the epitome of the all-American girl.

Since this is going to happen in any case...

Is this a done deal? Why is it a done deal?

Doesn't this require an act of congress? Or, have I missed the latest adventures of boehner, mcConnell and company?

[MeshugeMikey]

from the other end of the spectrum.....Hillarys FAVORITE...

[chajin]

Doesn't this require an act of congress?

Before 2009, yes. Since 2009, the Constitution is whatever the occupant of the White House says it is.

[bgill]

Total waste of tax dollars.

[Sacajaweau]

Ohhhh....I think Abigail would be an excellent choice.

[Seaplaner]

I'd be okay with Dolly Madison on the 10!

.

Whoa, great idea.

(Which I cheerfully second.)

S.E. looks like a D. Cupp
