I collect state quarters and today I got a Florida...
it has a picture of a boat, which may represent Ponce De Leon or something like that, a picture of an aircraft, which is obvious, and a palm tree, which again is obvious. And the slogan says, "Gateway to Discovery". There should be hanging chads and a saying which goes something like this, "We screwed the country". Or how about a picture of Kathleen Harris above the saying and jebbie on the other side of the coin. Heads and tails ya know. Except they are both asses, so who gets tails?

7. Vending Machines Won't Take the New Fla Quarter...

It's true! Studies have shown that the average vending machine will not accept the new Florida quarter. Studies are still going on to find out if it's the duct tape wrapped around the two dimes and nickel or if it's the dime-nickel-dime configuration that's the problem. Restacking the coins and using thinner tape does not seem to solve the difficulty and a re-design may become necessary.
