MAN SECEDES, CREATES OWN CURRRENCY

After years of frustration battling the IRS, a Missoula, Montana man has successfully seceded from the United States, severing all legal ties. The landlocked nation resides at 3296 Argyle Street, where forty-nine year old Larry Richard is now in his second term as president of the Republic of Larry.

As its only citizen, Richard holds all public offices in his nation, also granting him diplomatic immunity when traveling abroad to the post office or liquor store. He is also the country's wealthiest individual, with the ability to borrow unlimited money from his own private federal reserve.

-But rather than dollars and cents, this currency is counted in 'nipples and dicks', nipples being the primary unit of monetary measure, and dicks being the half unit. "Give me two dicks for a nipple." you might say.

Featuring an image of the Playboy mansion and Richard donning a tattered tank top and brandishing a Budweiser beer (considered a luxury import in the Republic of Larry), the fabled three nipple bills are also decoratively peppered with delectable lobes and piquant protuberances.

"The only thing better than money is tits." says Richard, with hopes that the lascivious loot will persuade sympathizers to join his country. The buxom bread is perceived to be more valuable than its American counterpart, simply because its nicer to look at than some two hundred and fifty year old slave owning drag-queen.

Not to exclude preferences, the half nipple coins known as 'dicks', are less popular.
