Wow, just when you thought you'd had enough Olympics in your pocket change....
I get the spam from the Royal Canadian Mint today saying that there's a trio of new quarters out now boasting the Vancouver 2010 Olympic mascots.
These won't actually be in your change. They're going to be sold to coin collectors. $14.95 for a quarter. Ye-ha.
And this story's just cute.
so, here we are in Japan. This very small railway - just 14km of track - was on the verge of going under. Meanwhile, one of the stations along this railway adopted a little kitten named Tama. Tama made the train station his home.
The railway company made Tama its mascot. Now, people from all across Japan are flocking to see this cat/station manager and buy merchandise bearing the kitty's likeness. The kitty saved the railway!
Read the complete story.
