Dumb question, perhaps, but wouldn't it be better if we just did away with pennies entirely? Why are we clinging to these things? As it stands, it costs more to produce a penny than a penny is worth, and a lot of people just throw them out anyway.
We could probably nix nickels and dimes, too, while we're at it.

And since I'm already bitching, if I ever find out who grouted my bathroom with sanded epoxy grout, I'm going to strangle them. Removing grout from a wall is one of the most tedious things anyone will ever have to do to their house.
Yeah, I took the week off from work and am spending it doing a few minor projects around my place. This grout thing is turning into a much bigger project than I ever expected. Bah.
Tomorrow, I take out the bathroom sink and the cabinet that's falling apart, and replace them with new ones. I don't know where they found this cabinet. Even the cheapest ones at Home Depot and Lowe's aren't this crappy. The cabinet is made of cheap pressboard, and it's coming apart under its own weight.
