Another Great Thanksgiving Trick

Remember last year I posted a game for the readers of this blog.Well it's still there if you want to try it out if you scroll down the blog.
However,this year I have a wonderful trick you can play on the family and although somewhat disheartening to the players it creates a great deal of conversation.
Simply put,in the course of conversation you can say to the table,"Iwill give a hundred dollars to anyone who can show me a penny from our country".
This will automatically put you at the center of attention and have the guests running and digging for a penny.Naturally one will be produced and when its handed to you you simply state,"Sorry but that is a one cent coin.Our country has no pennies'.
In all fairness you would be correct because we work off a decimal system and a " penny " is merely a nickname for the one cent coin.
You can then start a conversation about coins and have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
