Nefarious Canadian Currency!!!

Posted by on May 7th, 2007

Commemorative quarter

This is rich. Apparently some Canadian contractors entered the US carrying some commemorative quarters in their change. The quarters had a red poppy inset, which here is a symbol by which we remember our soldiers on Remembrance Day. Unused to the concept of creativity in currency design, the US spymasters dissected the thing — and “found” a nefarious nanotechnology device! High alert was raised of course, and the good citizens lived to be afraid for yet another day. All is well.
