Maybe they're not US dollars?
There are no absolutes. No right and wrong. Haven't you learned anything working for the Powers? There are only choices.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Ann, that's a ferret.
But a billion Australian or Canadian dollars is also a lot more than 69 million pounds.

Current exchange rate: 1 USD = 0.673 GBP
They obviously dropped a zero off of the £69 million figure.

Uh-huh, and no doubt it will be amended at some point. I just got a chuckle out of it.

Maybe it's the Guyanese Dollar.

Eurovision watch-and-post, anyone?
Edit: or is it in Natter, and I'm just missing it all?

For any Aussie lurkers: Channel 7 is advertising the new Nathan Fillion show, Castle. It starts this Sunday after Bones. It is well worth watching, as Nathan is terrific in it.

Sorry, no Eurovision posting in Natter...while I occasionally see awesome costumes noted on "Go Fug Yourself" or elsewhere on the internet, and clips on YouTube linked places, we don't usually get to watch the whole thing, here in the US, much as it looks like awesome fun.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
He's really charming, and the show has one of my favourite father/daughter TV relationships in it.

Yeah, Nathan really owns the character of "Rick Castle". Moonlit and I were discussing it, and we can't think of another actor who could play that character as effectively. Nathan just has a cheeky charm about him. I totally agree about the father/daughter relationship. The mother is good value as well.
Shir: sorry but--to quote from Castle--I'd rather have honey poured on my eyeballs and one hundred fire ants dropped on my head, than watch Eurovision.
