Tell me again, why do I need one of these things?

I could say something smart about loonies, but I am not.

How much would you pay for a National Geographic in Canadian dollars in 1997?

Now, it's past my bed time. Joe Dick thing polishing nicely.

Hopefully more tomorrow.

  I'm not dead certain, having no issue to check, but I think it was probably $4.95? Not more than that. Someone else might have an issue they could check.

    papajoemambo (my tame Canadian and something of a antique paper aficionado) puts it in the same ballpark.
    
    Billy is pretending to read one, he got it by autographing the till girl's arm.
    
    Joe is saying things to me about ten buck fucks and price inflation. You don't need some shiny wrapper, you just need what you can get.

    I still have random chocolate in the house, would that give your more energy?
    
    I know there's a lot on your shoulders, just keep moving. It's like being in a snow storm I guess (but without being found in tacky tourist shops the world over).

        That's the way to do it.
        
        Lots of short armed hugs coming your way.

    Seriously, I started polishing and rewriting last night and hope that I am still equipped to continue and put this baby to bed.

  I could check when I go home. I think my mother has a National Geographic collection from the last 15 years ;)
  You would however have to wait 2 weeks, rather 1.5 weeks.

    Don't worry about it. I've got two very nearly matching answers and that is more than enough for writing purposes.
