Even the MIT Newspaper is making fun of all the junk the Mint makes...

I laughed when I saw this... Comic on Page 6

Pokemon quarters? Why not?

NFL Commemorative Quarters!

We could have NASDAQ quarters. One for each company that lists on the NASDAQ. Hm. Could be some money in this!

Or, perhaps Nascar quarters. One for each driver. Or crew member.

If the mint wanted to be really smart and make billions for the treasury, they'd sell advertising space on the reverse side of our coinage.

I can already see the preparation H coins.

Where's the Blackjack Team column?

Based on the suggestions above, I think perhaps you people are members of the committee that selects these things... Cheers, RicKO

The real money will be made in advertising on toilet paper.

And then we can show them what we really think of their products.

I only wring my hands when I wail. it's not that bad.

I forgot the winky thing but you caught my drift anyway.

If they really want a winner they'd commemorate a bust of each playboy playmate from every month since they started.

I'd rather see "The Dreck" publish cartoons drawn by students than the cartoons from the syndicates.

And what's with all the reprinted articles from the New York Times?

Back in my day we had REPORTERS! Some of whom actually graduated....

Do they still publish the alterna-rag monday/thursday?

acsb

Dang. 46% female these days.

That's at least 25% higher than when I was there.

(Although it did bring back memories - the only time my mug made The Dreck was during R/O as a freshman.)

And yeah. Did seem a bit light on real reporting - scary as it sounds, the student writers were some of the most well known and easily identifiable people on campus back then. Musta been the lack of a football team.
