Flo and Friends by Jenny Campbell for October 06, 2023

Translated: Don’t know if I can get up after picking it up.

Little maths question: Is a 5$ bill worth the chiropractor the 500$ bill? You have 15 minutes.

How much pain are you willing to endure for $5?

Luckily I could pick it up by bending over without bending my knees. My back is better than my knees.

I used to pick up pennies, but now I won’t bend over for anything less than a dime.

Not a matter of need so much as kneed.

i need all the money i can find/get….i stooped over for 15 cents & it was difficult getting back up…& i am 15 cents richer & i thanked GOD for no issues in stooping…

Heck, I’ll go down for a nickel.

Well, somebody pick it up!

It could be somebody’s idea of a practical joke and be stuck to the sidewalk with glue or gum making it very difficult to pick up. Don’t fall for it. There’s not much left in the world you can buy for a dollar.

…and is it worth risking a trip to the chiropractor

It reminds me of a little poem when I was less than ten years old (for a collection titled Nursery Rhymes for old People): See a penny/Pick it up/And all the day long/Your back’ll act up.

You get to the the age where you don’t do squat.
