I was shopping for a new lawn mower, pacing the aisle, looking at different models when I realized I was comparing prices based on American Silver Eagles, not US Dollars.! :smile:

I was thinking.....this model costs 15 ASE's and that one is 17 ASE's.

What is wrong with me? :smile::smile::smile:

    :D:D Now that is funny..... I have not had that problem - well, not specifically. I have looked at a purchase and thought "I could get a new .45 for that price.".... so, I guess mental comparisons between the practical and hobby purchases are inevitable. Cheers, RickO

    For 15 or 17 Silver Eagles it must be a Push Mower :o

    The brain does make adjustments for changes in one eye vs the other. People who learn multiple languages learn to think in another language. These days, when I hand over dollars I sorta think of them as admission tickets. My bank account balance worries me when it starts getting too high. Binary math always bothered me. :)
