Penny for your thoughts? How about a million pennies?

LOS ANGELES, California (Reuters) -- A California man who collected 1 million pennies for a bet is having a hard time cashing in on his $10,000 fortune.

Ron England has amassed 3.6 tons of copper in his garage in the Los Angeles suburb of Granada Hills after making a bet with his brother 30 years ago that he could collect 1 million pennies.

But neither the U.S. Mint, the U.S. Comptroller of Currency, coin collectors nor the local bank is interested in cashing in his stash -- at least without a charge.

"I've been working seriously for the past two weeks to get rid of these pennies," England, 60, told the Los Angeles Daily News. "It's kind of frustrating. Nobody will take them without charging me."

What's worse. England is still waiting for his brother to honor his side of the bet -- a meal in Paris.

"I don't remember making the wager. Am I still good for it? I'm not going to answer that question," Russ England told the Daily News.

] I work at a well known flower shop, and one day a gentleman
] came in whose Mother had just passed. He ordered a casket
] spray (flowers on the casket) --a beautiful arrangement
] of 5 dozen pink roses. I asked him if he'd like a script
] on it (the ribbon with the lettering) to say something
] like "Dear Mom" or "Beloved Mother" or something similar
] to that. He thought for a moment, and then said, "Yeah.
] Yeah, I do...uh, can you make it say 'First Class
] B#*@h?'".

Woo-hoo! More Etiquette! This is etiquettehell.com and it will simultaneously make you never want to get married, attend a ceremony, work in an office, attend an office party, or basically celebrate anything or have any friends. Unless, of course, you get to bitch to an international forum. Burn, hours, burn.

[ heh... yeah, there's a lot of stupid ceremony we humans have built up over the years. On the other hand, there's a lot of people lacking even common decency, much less etiquette. -k]
