No Quarter Quarters

Date: Mar 20, 2005

Wasn't there talk at one point of painting (nail polishing) a red diagonal bar through each one we come across and then seeing how widely they become circulated? I would suspect that an enterprising student would gather fountain quarters long b4 Shelboo noticed they were there.

Another idea: Find a go between such as Truth/AH and mail the frick'n quarters to her and THEN we buy the ad! I'd love to red nail polish a quarter for that type of cause. If we drop them into the fountain, then the taxpayers will pay for the nighttime activity of the Thames underunderunderlings - it'll be named something different on the Budget Line but we will pay for it.

That may have been talk for some, but I can tell ya, I put A LOT of those diagonal slashed quarters out there at the time!

No Quarter!

Here's another interesting piece of nostalgia. A year ago TODAY, Shelby Thames was quoted in the HA as saying he would stay in the president's office as long as he was having fun!

FUN spelled backwards = NUF!
