Is Ddelaware where they exchanged shillings for pennies they earned so they may be saved? What was the exchange rate then? They must have left early in the morning as understand delaware is 4576 miles away.

Ben tells me they called pennies "pence" then but he is not as reliable as Wiki on that stuff. If you upgraded to mules from the standard oxen that pulled the car you got unlimited mileage & a toaster.  But there wasn't anywhere to plug it in, so Martha W. exchanged it for a stuffed wildebeast eating a carrot.

You can Snopes it to verify.  Plus, Ben Franklin, the inventor of the first GPS, used to charge 2 shillings for his Revolutionary rental car GPS.  It was a midget hanging from a kite that was tied to the back of the car.  Guy's name was Richard.  Poor fellow.

So there was an economically challenged midget name Richard hanging from a kite to be a rental car beacon?  That little Dick.

Why is it called Off Topic? Should be called Irrelevant Non Motorcycle Topics! Not to be confused with On Topic Non Motorcycle Topics. If you stick with the topic then it would be On Topic. :nixweiss:

Yeah.  Dick had some weird weather fetish where he obsessed on climate change.  He wrote it all down, too.

Ben's spell checker was not working, either.
