How dirty are dollar bills? Do you ever wonder how many people had your dollars or coins before it got to you? Or pennies, just look at the year... how many ppl had that penny before you??? (I find this very interesting to think about!)

I remember reading and article in the newspaper years ago that dollar bills as well as coins are very dirty. You shouldn't ever put coins in your mouth and you also wouldn't ever want to put dollars in your mouth either. When you think about it money can come to you in all kinds of conditions and don't rely on it to be clean when you get it either not even if it gets in your washer or dryer. It just makes me want to say, Yuck!! So, you can think about it, but after reading that article I wished that I hadn't learned about it, at least not in that way.

LOL right?
Man, like if I were in the a rush to get ready and leave somewhere I might put a dollar bill in my mouth to hold it since my hands would be too busy. Sick!! hahaha
I don't know why I had to just think of how dirty money was. Now I'm keeping that in mind so that I don't automatically put it in my mouth. @_@

I remember one time on Family Matters someone dared Urkel to "put his money where his mouth is" and Waldo said "don't do it Steve, money's got germs".
