Sometimes the mystery is good enough.

Money intrigues me. That a single coin passes through thousands of hands, countless slots and rollers, video games, cash registers, vending machines, and those little things in the mall that make coins go around and around. It's astounding. Donations, wishing wells, piggy banks, pockets, and pouches. How many couch, chair, and loveseat cushions has it been under? How many people, without considering the filth it's been through, have put the coin on their eye, balanced it on their nose, or even licked it? This completely leaves out sewers and banks, sink drains and toilets, grimy truck stop bathroom floors and even the ones that are always hidden behind our ears? What about those little pieces of dirt that actually turn out to be coins so covered in corrosion and crud you can hardly tell it's a coin at all? Car floorboards, swimming pool drains, trash cans, landfills, and air vents. If you really think about it, that extra change you have in your pocket, in your drawer, or on your desk has been through quite a lot. It'd be an interesting bit of info to find out...

I think that is one of the reasons I love old houses. For practical reasons I probably wouldn't want one, but to sit in nooks, find dents and marks in banisters and window sills and wonder what stories they would tell. I do that in my own home, remember things by the things involved.

As a cashier, I'm always horrifed to discover where people keep their money. When I'm handling it, I'm always like, "how many bras has this bill been crammed into? How many nipples touched this? And these coins? How many skeakers did these jingle around in before I was graced with them?" xd It must be my hyponchondriacal tendencies at work, but I have to have hand sanitizer with me at work. Also, I always get worried about buying things at grocery stores. If I take something from the shelf, I pull the next item forward sometimes... I used to have to do it when I workd at Winn-Dixie, so I guess the habit carried over. rolleyes

hah, I pull an item off the shelf at the grocery store, take the one behind it, and then replace the first one. I don't ever like buying the one in front, it's the one everyone picks up to read the lable and then puts back.

Best for you to make this some sort of fleeting ponderance, you might be underwhelmed by the truth about where the weapon has really been and what it has done. Theres something romantic in the mystery of it and that seems worth holding on to imo.
