If you've actively navigated to this web page, one of but billions, bless you my friend. Here are the bare stats:

- I was born in 1976, the bicentennial of the U.S.

- I do not collect bicentennial quarters, despite briefly flirting with idea in my formative years.

- The other day I was in an antique store in Greeneville, TN, killing time and hunting for Cool Things, and overheard this exchange (closely paraphrasing):

Male Customer: What year is that coin right there?

Antique Dealer: It's a bicentennial.

Male Customer: Is it old?

-This exchange made me feel old.
