    Minnesota? How long will the recount take? Things could change in that time. Don't growl at me, I'm from California and have nothing to be proud of, either.

    I'm guessing,$152.00.

    SondraK sent me.

    A franken obama cuss jar?!

    Didn't say when the last time it was emptied for cigars and burbon.

    SondraK sent me and I'll guess the answer is US$42.

  13. Danny - the idea man behind Leninade - was unable to post a comment with his guess. Below is his email:

    I'm going to guess $118. I really liked the comment admonishing respondents to come up with a number
    that has no cents. I think that that phrase, under a different spelling, is indicative of the policies of our
    current government... and even more specifically the government of the State of California! It also lends
    to a prophecy of the movie "Idiocracy" in which people are admonished, when guessing how much money
    is in a jar full of $1 bills, not to use cents!

    The way I came up with the $118 was that I have a stack of 59 bills in front of me and I was thinking that
    about double that would be in the jar. Also if you calculate backwards... with the current government's
    tax policies, if you start with $118 and take away federal income tax, state income tax, state sales tax and
    property tax... you would be lucky to have $34.99 left afterwards!

    Happy 4th to everyone! Enjoy those barbecues before the CA-Proposition 65 Extortion Attorneys from
    out of state and their CA-Resident Phantom Plaintiffs come along to sue you for preparing flame grilled
    meat!

    It is a trick question.

    It has to do with Obama so it is an illusion. There is no money, Obama is keeping it all.

    Via SondraK
    $700 Billion (cost of TARP)
    Course after the obama tax plan it will be just enough to buy a double scoup butterscotch sunday at the local tastie-freeze.

    If I win donate it to Sondra (yea, she's gotta pay the taxes on it too).

  18. Wow! I haven't won anything since WWII. Would it be ok if I gave the Leninade to PeggyU and the cap to SondraK? These ladies are much more deserving than I.........
