Works for me

Find a penny pick it up. All day long you'll have good luck. As long as it is facing head side up. And you pick it up with your left hand. And you put it in your left front pocket. (To keep it away from all those other pedestrian coins you received as change at the 7-11). If it is tail side up, simply turn it over. Yes, with your left hand. Break contact with the penny. Then start fresh. This also works with nickels, dimes, quarters, and any other coins you might happen upon. (Upon which you might happen?) Currency, however, is a whole different matter Dear Reader.
