Nortonic Currency

Ryan mentioned in the comments box that he thinks that I would fit the Emperor Norton mode quite well. He wants me to print money with my picture on it, as Emperor Norton did. That is a capital idea, but I need to come up with what I am going to call my currency. Too many dollars out there, and they retired the Lira's number (10,000,000,0000 or something like that). So I have to look to our friends the Irish. The Punt. However, I find overuse of the punt to be a sign of wimpiness. Real men try for the first down, even when it is fourth and long. So, out goes the Punt.

Now, the swamp-dwelling Low Germans used to use Fl. as the abbreviation for their Guilder. Fl stood for Florin, which is named after the city that crushed my ancestral city of Pisa (boo! hiss! We'll get you back, you Florentine fools!), so I think they are bastards, but they are Tuscan bastards, so I will have to go with them. Also they have a great cathedral and superb tripe.

So...

Hear ye!
Hear ye!

The second Emperor of the Nortonic Dynasty has proclaimed his currency to be the Florin!

Be Happy and Drink to that!
