Fun Facts

This past week I subbed in some eighth grade classrooms. The kids have been teaching me all kinds of things (the opposite of what you'd expect, right?!). In a class that was right before lunch, a boy was sniffing his lunch money and said "I love the smell of money!" My reply was something like, "I'm sure that at some point your money has been in someone's sweaty pocket". This did not deter him from sniffing his money. A boy sitting next to the money sniffer said that he knew a fact that might make you not want to kiss your money. He debated whether it was appropriate for school, but then decided that since he found this fact on the mint's website that it was appropriate. This student claims that 75% of all one dollar bills have been in a stripper's g-string! How about that?!

There is also some kind of fact that all money has alittle bit of cocaine on it because of drug trafficing.
I think the g-string statisic is more fun.
