yeah I know you did not ask!
I visit with people via Skype to practice my Spanish. Two of the countries I “Skpe” to are El Salvador and Ecuador. The official currency of both countries is the US dollar. This came about mainly because it was the most common currency on the black market and the governments gave in to a fait accompli. Because so many transactions are for smaller amounts of money, the US dollar coin, the Sacagawea coin that was so unpopular here, is very popular there, as the coin is more durable, All of which got me connecting random dots in my brain.
Canada as far as I know does not have a $1 bill; at least all I have seen when I was there were $1 and $2 coins.
Stay with me I am about to get there…
It has been a while since I was in a “Gentlemen’s” club, but when I was last in one, it was a common practice to place $1 bills in whatever apparel was still left on the performer’s body, or barring that, throw the money onto the stage.
Thinking about this made me worry about the exotic dancers of our Canadian neighbor. The loonies – Canadian $1 coins – certainly would not stay inside a g-string strap, leaving tossing them at the ecdysiast as the only option. Bruising must be an occupational hazard.
And so it goes.
Yes, it has been a longgggg time since u where in one….. Now a dollar would’nt get any body attention.
