My Neighbor

Talk about your money makeover. America's currency has been going through a facelift in recent years ... new twenties, ten and five dollar bills, state quarters, nickels, and new Presidential dollar coins.

Now it's the penny's turn.

There's a link there that will give you a sneak peek at the four new back-penny designs, in honor of the 200th anniversary of Lincoln's birthday next February.

I was talking with my neighbor the other day. He mentioned they were thinking of moving.

"Oh?" I replied, trying to get more information. "Better job? Don't like the neighborhood? The schools?"

"Oh, we like the house just fine," he says, "but the landlord asks too much for the rent."

"Really?"

"Yup. Last month he asked five times."
