Terrible news, friends.


They're changing the freakin' penny. Pisses me off. What gives someone the right to change the penny? Is nothing sacred anymore? Beautiful old homes are preserved as part of our nation's history, and likewise pennies should continue to be produced in the same fashion that has suited them for the last fifty years. What are they going to do next, tear down the Lincoln Home in Springfield to build a skyscraper in "commemoration" for his 210th birthday? Leave my Lincoln alone!

Read the article that shook my happy little world.
