40 Miles of Pennies valued at $37,000 for charity great story.

I missed my buds on here. I got bad news my condo fees are going up another 4 percent. Fort Myers Beach looked like a ghost town. Bottle nosed Dolphins are swimming within 4 feet of the beach and with the high condo taxes and loss at the dog tracks I needed to come home and unwind before I posted this story. Maybe someone already did and can bring up the linky.
Was watching the tube news the other night and saw somewhere a group of people made a 40 mile track of pennies, after counted was worth about $37,000 for a local charity not bad huh.
Oh btw, I did get in later this day, my family and I got 4 rt tickets to anywhere in the USA for giving up our seats on Airtran, just had to wait another 2 hrs, then lay over at Alanta for another 3 hrs, then on home. Bought my tickets back in Feb/08 for $69 each way and now scored on a 4 pack of Round trippers. Anyone ever got lucky like this?
Nice to be back home.

I get this uncontrollable urge to check dates when I see something like that.
My favorite Lincoln Statistic is that if you stacked all the lincolns ever minted (nearly a half trillion) they would reach to the moon and nearly all the way back.
