Wellllll, if anyone knows what Snopes is it is a website designed to hunt out email scams etc. My lovely sister sent me this link:
http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/dollarcoin.asp
Turns out the "In God we trust" inscription is ON THE SIDE of the coin. Those sneeky tricksters. This is what I don't understand, what do people get out of sending totally false emails around? Maybe it makes them feel better when they go to bed at night knowing they have tricked thousands of gullible Americans? Or maybe they have nothing better to do. Anyway, I fell for it....for a day at least.

Good ol snopes.com aka Urban Legends! I learned this lesson about 6 years ago when I was sent a very tart reprimand by John Lewis for forwarding something that was not true. I am grateful to him for that as I check those forwards before I send them on. A great lesson to learn. Love you LIB.
Love you sis!
