Examples

“Not infrequently, one of us will spot a Zincoln lying on the sidewalk or street, and pick it up. Today, I spotted a dime and scooped it up. Later she found a Zincoln, and ere we had traveled much further, I snagged a Jefferson. To which I feel compelled to cry in a voice both loud and long -- "Hey! This is fun!" :-)”
