Back from HK. How cool is this? I'd heard before that Hong Kong had bills made of plastic, but it seemed like straight monopoly money when I received this HK$10 bill as change yesterday. Not only plastic, but see-through as well. Apparently they are also longer-lasting than paper money.
This segues nicely to "I For One, Welcome Our Chinese Banker Overlords". Someone else's joke, but check out the links for interesting stuff on China's foreign currency reserves. On second thought, if you're in the US right now, you'd better just find pictures of adorable kittens or something. Best not to think about the ~$6000 you owe China.
