"Money" Laundering: Doing it the Literal Way

Sometimes, I am such a theorist.

Note: I suggest responding with your best money-laundering joke.

Additional note: My debit card still has its glossy sheen, but the ID card's surface isn't quite as smooth as it used to be.

Kickin' it Old School: "Where's the Beef?" Board Game

I was at a store with random old geek and gaming stuff, and one of their display cases contained a used copy of the Where's the Beef? board game (which I forgot existed).

There were also things like wax packs of Topps Three's Company collectible cards. (I had seen those before.)
