That's funny. Unfortunately, this has been the case in Turkey for a long time. When I was there in '99 I bought a beer for 7mil. Dinar, or whatever their currency is called. But I only had 6.5 on me at the time, they gave it to me anyway...

1 in 5 adults in Zimbabwe are HIV positive, and having a ****ty government that aids in the destruction of their economy doesn't help their ability to fight things like the aids epidemic.

but what can we do?
