    Are you sure? Those were gold-backed dollars, back then.

    Not since the 1930's, they weren't! So no more biting coins.

    Nowadays, people are getting away from fiat currencies and start to deal with Bitcoins. So, it starts all over again.

    As far as I can see, Bitcoin is worthless, as there is no "Full faith and credit" on the Internet.

    I love all of these photos. When I look at them, I sometimes notice things that are neat, or interesting and even sometimes funny, that the photographer likely never intended to capture on film.
    Like this photograph for instance. There appears to be a sign for "HELL" in downtown Las Vegas.
    Ironic and humorous.

    After the wagon that was the first thing I saw. I'm sure many went to Vegas and found it was Hell.:evilsmile:

    I love that Cushman almost better than my Piaggio APE. That meter maid's got balls. I wish, the ones over here would place tickets in front of Dunkin' Donuts.
    All you need is a book of matches and someone filling their tank, for the sign to live up to its name. [​IMG]
