then a week or so ago I was in London Ontario with a fistfull of Canadian bills. they have the color thing, but the front is all the Queen so that was boring. But the backs had scenes of Canadian life. One I saw had guys playing hockey on an outdoor pond. I assume they change the scenes frequently, and you could always look and see what is new. Much better than static marble monuments.
And so I was thinking I really wish we'd get our money to be better to look at. We could have changing non-green money. Which would be a big improvement in my opinion.
Then I realized with all the currency readers in commerce they wouldn't be able to change money without a huge expense to change out the machines. We're stuck with it.

Dear Hank,
I would be more than happy to take that disgusting ugly money off of your hands and replace it with beautiful happy colorful money. I will even print it myself in large denominations. If you'd like, I'll even photoshop your pic in the leather outfit on the front of the $100 dollar bill. Think of all that dirty ugly money clogging up your checking account. Free yourself now.
