Good advice if we see the deflation that some are forecasting...555!!!

Wish I'd put some in a tin can about a year ago.

Great parody, Forsby! Happy investing! My friend had thousands of dollars stashed in his jar awhile back when he told me he was "putting it away for a rainy day". (Not kidding). Now I can put $555 in your tin can to put away for a rainy day!

Leo K - Boy, you ain't kidding! Watch out for the new "Cash Re-distribution Czar" down the road, though. ;-)

Timmy1000 - Yeah, I took some hits over the last year too! Now I'm just hoping for change! ;-)

Christie MM - Thanks a lot Christie! Nothing as nice as the sound of cold hard cash and the sight of lovely women shaking their "cash-filled" cans. Smart strategy for your friend. Had he invested it he might only have hundreds now. :-D

Saw the other one first. Dupe post, dupe comment, but no dupe vote -- unless ACORN convinces me, of course. (Dupe):

Put it in gold.

"Knead their own dough" ROFLMAO! Shakin' cans can can a man, as can the can-can. Can can you these Fives

What TT said-said! You've got the touch man! And is 'Forsby' official now, or must one sport two 'X' chromosomes to let loose with that nick?

My honey takes my cash but she stashes it in the till of our local clothes shop.

Thanks for the punctuation answer the other day - I've looked into it a bit more (should have just done that in the first place) and you was right. The bit where you get a " and a ' together so ends up "' is the bit that always throws me. It just doesn't look right.

Jumpin Jack Cash...???? FG's can is just right for holdin' all that spare change. ;)

Thanks, TT. Yeah I 'can" relate. Sorry for the confusion. Without boring everyone with explanations of my "thorn in the flesh" I goofed up and submitted the unfinished version of my parody my mistake. Thanks for the v/c. As entertaining as always.

Thanks TJC. The "touch" or I'm "touched"? :-D Oh, "Forsby" is fine with me. Too clever to be offensive regardless of who uses it. I think "Guy" was the first one who used it and a nickname just happens anyway and works without any design so plkease use it if it seems to fit.

Andy - Thanks. Yeah, there are those kinda girls too, aren't there. You're welcome about the punctuation. A lot of things don't always look right and that's one of them because it's kind of rare and looks a little cluttered. It's the only way though. I'd try to arrange in internal quote so it doesn't butt against the double quotation marks. Otherwise, we have no choice except to do it that way.

Fiddlegirl - I'll bet you have. I don't think I've ever known a female who didn't know the value of a buck ... in coin or currency. Nothing like the sound of cold-hard cash, right? :-)

A country girl goes into town, to the bank, and deposits a dozen rolls of quarters.

Teller: "My, that's a lot of quarters! Did you hoard them all yourself?"

Girl: "No, Ma'am. Mah sister hoard half of 'em."

LOL! Good one. :D

Two thousand satirists and parodists out of work and you're trying to be funny? :-D
