A Staggering 96% of the Artifacts in San Francisco’s Mexican Museum May Be Fake

Though the museum basically accepted whatever was donated to them

Same with my once or twice a year indulgence, brandy(cognac/armagnac).

Luckily I like my brandy to taste like a mixture of gas, turpentine, and diesel with a hint of lighter fluid aftertaste. So the cheap Paul Masson is perfect for me.

Don't forget political pins/buttons, many of which are fakes and reprints.

At this point I think it would be WAY easier to list the things that are not faked or altered to make $ off of. I wanted to start the list but couldn't think of a single thing.
