No such thing as bad publicity...

Big missed opportunity not having an accessible interior.

Far too coherent.

Good thought. I figured it was just hyperbole.

You're welcome to figure that out yourself, but 6.25g of 90% pure silver will never be worth more than the collector value of the quarter itself.

Silver quarters were 6.25 grams of 90% pure silver. Silver is currently $0.91/g putting the value of the metal at about $5.10.

Coin collectors today will buy your 1925 quarter for $30-$100 depending on condition.

However in 1925 that quarter would be worth its face value of $0.25 — equal to $4.49 today.

More likely they'd be flipping a nickel.

If it weren't for projection those dipshits wouldn't know what to feel about anything.

Probably sounds like a great idea to an idiot who's lost billions himself and assembled the most unqualified administration in the history of the country.

Duck Wearing Bow-Tie Walks Into Pub, Drinks Pint, Fights Dog, Loses (www.huffingtonpost.co.uk)
 

cross-posted from: https://feddit.uk/post/14359573

A bow-tie wearing duck has been injured in a drunken pub brawl with a local dog in Chulmleigh, Devon.

The booze-loving bird, affectionately named Star, was enjoying a pint in The Old Courthouse Inn with his handler, Barrie Hayman, when Hayman's canine Meggie sparked a bar brawl.

Star was left with injuries to his beak after the fight.

"Star pushed his luck too far and Meggie snapped - splitting Star's bottom beak right down the middle," Hayman, 69, told the Cheddar Valley Gazette.

"He gave her a stare, then promptly stood on her back. It was not pretty and not nice. We were so scared we would lose Star.

...

Hayman has cared for Star ever since he was a chick, carrying him around in his pocket. Once the duckling grew up, he developed a taste for real ale and started following his owner to the pub.

"He just won't leave me and so we go everywhere together," Hayman said. "I've not trained him to follow me. He just seems to like it and he is one fantastic duck.

"He loves to come to the pub, where everyone loves him. He is such a personality and attracts so much attention."

I just realized that this is a repost from a month ago, albeit I seem to have found it from a different source I apologize for not checking.

Edit to say for the record that I was at this concert and took this picture. I'm not posting photos from someone else's website or search engine.
