Pennies
My niece sent this poem to me. 
Pennies
I found a penny today
just laying on the ground,
but it's not just a penny
this little coin I've found.
Found pennies come from heaven
that's what my grandpa told me,
he said angels toss them down.
Oh, how I loved that story.
he said when an angel misses you
they toss a penny down,
sometimes just to cheer you up
to make a smile out of your frown
so don't pass by that penny
when you're feeling blue,
it may be a penny from heaven
that an angel's tossed to you.

Re: Pennies
Only trouble is that the penny you find now will be taxed at 90%.
Sorry about the downer, but tis reality, today.

So that means you now have 1 mill out of that penny which you keep.

Re: Pennies
Will the angels get slammed for counterfeiting?
