Just to share a chuckle. Re 3 Nickels and 3 1 cent stamps

percyb

I regularly receive pleas for donations from Catholic sources. Had a chuckle today as I collect coins and stamps. How did they know?? So I accept these with a humble heart, sent as they were from PotSH.
The nickels are stuck on the letter.
Smile.

Be careful. I accepted a free flower at the airport from a guy wearing a yellow robe and it took me ten years to get out of that cult.

It was once a popular method to secure donations.... Sending a coin in the mail with a letter. Then it became dollar bills for a while. Back when I was in business, I learned to open all junk mail, because often there was currency inside. Once it was a five dollar bill. I always kept the currency and trashed the rest. Cheers, RickO

I was 19, and just finished a beach run. I saw someone I hadn't seen since junior high. Asked him what he was up to. He said he was going to Berkeley and join the Hare Krishna people. Haven't heard from him since. I'm in my early 70s now.
