What to do with some mad money

[Darth Wagtaros]

I got a 100$ check as a birthday gift.  Not sure what to do with it.  Working in a library I can get most books through that, I don't really buy a lot of movies and again, can get them through the library.

Should i get a Kindle FIre and eat the last 80 dollars?  Ideas for anything else?  Give it to Toys for Tots? 

[Grey Fox]

Buy something nice for a kid, I have someone in mind. I can send you some pictures.

[Maladict]

Give it to some needy folks, 'tis the season and all that.

[Admiral Yi]

Buy a bag of weed.

[mongers]

The government, help pay down the deficit.

Stop begging. It is undignified.

So is the descriptor short hand that you got so little money?

[Darth Wagtaros]

Hah.  No, it was described as 'mad money' when I opened the card. 

[garbon]

odd.

-take the (wife?) out for a nice dinner
-buy an outrageously expensive bottle of wine, or merely expensive bottle of scotch
-drop it in the tin of a Sally Ann volunteer
-buy a overly-expensive computer peripheral - like a mouse or keyboard
-buy a really nice designer tie (if you ever wear ties that is)
-buy an Apple TV

1.  Buy a knife and run amok on the rapid transit.
2.  Get 100 bucks worth of meth.
3.  Transfer it to pennies and drop it all on the mayor from a rooftop.
4.  Use it to set up a murder for hire scheme.
5.  Get a haircut like the ancient aliens guy.

That's all the constructive stuff I can think of right now.

The Kindle Fire is awesome

[Darth Wagtaros]

Apple TV has potential.  Explain.

You should listen to this guy, these are all sound ideas from where I'm standing.
