Charlie's question about bills and banks brings to mind this old tale which many of our newer members may not be aware of.
Hopefully a word to the wise will be sufficient.
(may be sung to the tune of Gilligan's Island )
Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale
a tale of a fateful trip
that started at a stamping bench
and continued on like this.
Now Keith was a mighty Georgin' man
his heart was pure and frank
many a bill were stamped that day
for deposit to the bank.
The weather started getting rough
the manager cried foul
defacement is against the law!
You must stop this all right now!
But Keith replied, I don't defraud!
against the law IT'S NOT!
Title 18 section three three three
says I don't have to stop.
The bank called in the treasury
(the secret service men)
They realized that Keith was right!
But had honor to defend.
They found some small and tiny print
translated it themselves,
then jumped on HANK with hob-nail boots
"THE STAMPS YOU CANNOT SELL!"
We learn from this to be discrete.
never to stand out
untill of course we get a hit
and then we all can shout!
