You will have to dig up some of those old Nabob coffee cans. Are they rusty?
I have Euros. But $1.00 bet only. Lack of restraint only causes grief, so $1.00, take it or leave it.

You're already a year out on your bet- dates, and already fudging the adjustment. Make up your damn mind. lol
2010 it is.
I almost never tell jokes and rarely bet, but I do enjoy a dish of crow every now and again. (I've had more than my fill this year, btw.)
I should have said I will pay in krona, but the Euro terms are already on the table, so I cannot reneg. Done. Pars. "
