The U. S. Treasury has announced they are recalling the new Alabama quarter. According to the Treasury officials, the quarter will not work in parking meters, toll booths or vending machines.

Apparently, the duct tape holding the two dimes and nickel together keeps jamming the machines.

Ha!

I believe there's a similar joke about the Irish pound.

Oh, and that's ``Ala-slap-damn-bama''.
