Developments

I found a dime last night in my neighborhood. And I went through the entire street change collection at the bar tonight. WHOOPS!!!

Just kidding. Closing in on $35. A very respectable amount considering it was all up to chance.

Here are two "temporary" new changes to the system:

A) I will count the money that was intentionally thrown down by my friends. I wasn't sure what to do with this because I didn't want it to skew the actual total since this was supposed to be a VERY RANDOM EXPERIMENT. The total is $1.57. That is fine. However, I will not count any additional coins that are thrown down by my friends. The limit is capped.

B)After conferring with my public relations manager, minister of change, and acting secretary of finance we have decided to "open the field up" as they say in the world of recruitment. Armed forces excluded. I am pleased to announce without the launch of any major sponsorship, advertising agency or otherwise markeing personnel, the launch of the new holiday campaign "Found it, Count it!". F*CK YEAH!

Give the power to the people. Between December 24 and December 31, I will add what you "collect". Each day I will post an entry and if you find anything, put the amount in the comment. I will add that to my total. That's right, you too can be a streetchanger. I'll send you a button. Well, not really. But your retrieval of lost and displaced change will serve a good cause. So for one week, if you see it, and pick it up, it counts. Just remember to add your total in the comment section. Watch for the first posting on December 24.
