2 Why do guys do that? Well, you know and I know that Batman will probably win that one in the long run. That's not the point anyway. I just don't understand guys who throw pennies.
3 At 4:46 a.m. today the population of America officially hit 300,000,000. They're not sure who the guy was, but their best guess is that the guy was undoubtedly a Latino. 4:46. That killed me. Someone sat up all night figuring that out. In the year 2043, we will hit 400,000,000. We're not sure as to what race that guy will be. Hopefully the human race. Anyway, I know this because it is being reported in the news, as I compose these words.
4 I'm not really sure as to WHO comes up with stuff like that, but I gotta tellya.
5 It's pretty funny because last night I went to Joe's with Sunshine and Company, and at one point he turned to me and said, "30 billion pennies are thrown each year."
6 I just stared. "Huh?"
7 "Every year, 30 billion pennies are thrown," he mentioned once more, this time with the authority of a scholar from Yale. I was dumbfounded. I couldn't even comprehend a small stack of pennies, let alone 30 billion.
8 "Where do you come across a statistic like that? I asked.
9 "It was online. They know."
10 "What pennies? Thrown where?"
11 He responded, "You ever throw a penny?"
12 I must say, he had me. Yes, I've thrown a few pennies in my day. Don't know why, really, but it certainly is something I've done more than once. You know, every now and again, you just throw a penny.
13 How do "they" learn stuff like this?
14 I just see things like that and decide that I don't think I ever want to be a "they".
15 That's it.
16 Short one today. I have to go out and catch people throwing quarters.
17 This job works ya too hard.
18 Nah, just kidding.
19 30 billion.
