Recently at an executive board meeting president of Chook Industries,
Larry Snow,
held up a new 20 dollar bill and said three prophetic words,
"This is shit." The reworking of imagery on American currency
just hasn't enraged Larry Snow,
but most of America. Jamie Kestler, a
waitress at a dinner on the outskirts of Philadelphia had commented,
"Those bloated faces are haunting like works of Goya." Although it was
the on the scene reporter Crazy Horse Tomahawk
who heard the informed
waitress's comment, it was Mr. Snow who replied:
"At Chook
Industries, we don't endorse the products of Goya. I hate Papayamaya
nectar or whatever the hell they call that pink stuff. What in holy
tarnation is that sucrose crap? It sure ain't juice; it's too thick to be
juice. Its downright perverted - just like the mutilation
of American Currency art work. The baddest ass thing about American
currency was that it looked real, whereas the rest of the world's monetary
unitarians look like Food Lion
coupons. As far as I'm concerned, we
might as well stuff our new bogus money in the Candylane box and go join the
EU."
However, it seems that Chook Industries president didn't feel that
the new Ugly-Money was just a matter of aesthetics, but something that
extended to Heaven and Hell. Larry commented:
"I'm not a very religious
man, but the other day when the speaker dude at Circuit City handed me a
one dollar bill with the words 'The Devil' scrawled in Satanic
lettering, I got scared almost as bad as the time I was practically
decapitated by a stop light because I was on a raised ladder attached to
a fire truck careening through the streets of DC at 60 miles an hour. I swear
to you, I had an outer body experience of FEAR."
Jim Shooter followed
up Mr. Snows comments by adding:
"I don't really think that Larry felt
that the new money was the work of the Devil. I think he was more of
suggesting a metaphor that the reworking of the imagery was defacement
of American heritage."
To defend that heritage Chook has decided to
stand up for the last paper monetary unit not yet to destroyed with ill
artisanship. Larry elaborates:
"So I got this idea, you know how they
sold a copy of the Declaration of Independence on Ebay about a week ago?
Well I figured this was the answer, since people were capitalizing on
American Ideals and because the biggest American Ideal of all is
capitalism and money is capitol, the best the way to defend George Lombardi
Washington is to make a mint, a big green one, on history. So
I figured that Chook would sell one dollar bills on its web site,
because pretty soon there wouldn't be any one dollar bills left, cause
Satan and his minions of Hell are out there."
Chook is currently
planning to make each dollar bill more marketable by incorporating all
dollar bills that come into its possession into a collectible card game
called 'Molly
Dollars'. Rules for the 'Molly
Dollars' game will be
released free of charge on the Chook Industries web site in the coming
months. For now however, Chook will only be offering limited 'Molly
Dollar' playing units for purchase on its web site. Each 'Molly
Dollar'
unit is sold in a sealed paper pack. All 'Molly
Dollars' come with an
individual serial number. Each 'Molly
Dollar' is unique, making every
one a collectors item. Start your bank of 'Molly
