14. Yeah, but the Turks use lira too

18. you might want to reconsider that
I don't think the Italian Lira is worth all that much any more. Maybe the value of the paper...

23. Italy has gone Euro
Italian Lira are collector's items, no longer legal tender in Italy. Just like the Deutsch Mark, Franch Franc, Drachma and others.

9. Then you lack imagination, especially if you can do everything
and choose to do nothing.

Go steal a Ferrari and get away with it.

Sheesh, kids today.

I'll cough up a buck.
