Caulfield: This? It's for...Mrs. Olsen: I know what it is. Hand it to me. I can't keep you from sleeping during social studies, but I don't have to make it easy for you. Caulfield: Boy, she doesn't listen to herself at all. Frazz: I'm not sure there's a way to make the federal reserve act interesting.

Stew Bek: As Populist Stephen McLalley, wrote back when the gold standard was the law: “Imagine a yardstick three feet in 1789, in 1809 was 19 1/2”, in 1849 4’, in 1872 38 1/2" and in" 189? (when it was written), “4’ 3.9”. What a wonderful thing to measure cloth by, to be sure. Yet we measure our debts and credits by no more accurate a standard."
