Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.

Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown

If the US ever phases out $1 bills, I think I'll kill myself. I hate having to deal with the change section of my wallet to find dollars when I go to Canada and England. :cuss:

Also, what did your $2 look like? Did you guys actually like... USE them? I've got a couple of US $2, but I don't even remember where I got them or why... considering we don't really consider them real money, just collectors' pieces. :lol:

Lookie at how many dudes are on the back of it!!!

We don't really use them cos... well, I guess it's a little of both. Two $1 bills work fine and don't really weigh you down or anything, and they stopped really making the $2, I think. I've only come across like... 3 or 4 my entire life. And I'm hoarding them all. :lol:

this series is called "Canadian Journey", which, though trite, is better than the 1986 series IMHO ("Birds of Canada")

Speaking of which, here's the back of the $2:

apparently the 1954 series caused controversy and is nicknamed the devil's head money because it looks like there's a demon in the queen's hair

the frenchified version of In Flanders Fields that appears on the ten is actually really well done
i can read it off the ten i have on my desk
i'm impressed!
it's only the first verse though
it's good cause the guy didn't try to translate it tooo exactly, but just used the theme and the structure and put some beautiful stuff into it:


Au champ d'honneur les coquelicots
Sont parsemes de lot en lot
Aupres des croix; et dans l'espace
Le alouettes, devenues lasses
Melent leur chants au siflement
Des obusters
