Filled with quarters, just in case. Just in case what I don’t know but I’m ready.

One of the world’s greatest inventions.

Went to a community wide garage sale couple months ago. Some folks were dealing in Venmo. I like paper in my wallet CAUSE IM OLD.

My granddaughter asked, “Grandpa, can I have some monies?”

“Sure kid,” thinking she’d take a quarter.

Nooooooo! She plunged both hands in, and came up with both fists full of “monies.”

Kid is in kindergarten and the tablet is on the table, facing a wall. Daughter's house was built in 1830 and the back of the fireplace wall is in the kitchen, It is a stone wall.

Daughter is in the living room while the kindergarten lesson is going on, when she hears, "Matthew, please don't climb the wall."
