The Small Denominational Order of Loose Change


Loose Change Banner

Dividing line -- they're everywhere

The Small Denominational Order of Loose Change has a slowly-evolving Chapterhouse.

One of the more recent evolutions is that it has mirrored, or nearly so. As of this writing, the version you are currently looking at is the most up to date. For a version of the site which is banner-add free but never updated, click on the banner or follow this link to our new virtual domain.

Loose Change is still that stuff making noise in your pocket, annoying you until you need it for the parking meter, the bus token, or have enough scraped together for a snack from the vending machine.

Loose Change can also be given to beggars, or tossed into the cases of street musicians.

In short, it's handy stuff that you don't think about until you need it.

This site contains some of the strange tales gathered by the Order, with new stories added every so often. Some are true in sprit, others in fact, several in both sprit and fact.

In the meantime, rattle the change in your pocket meditatively.

Or read a few of our tales.

Loosely non-fiction

A tale of the young God Emperor
A prank.

How a ritual was born
The secret history of the Ritual of Liking

A gekko in the house
Sometimes it's the simple things that make revenge so sweet.

Grounding the fire
"Why are those wires coming out of the fire pit?"

The writing on the wall
The master of manipulation manipulates the unmanipulable.

Between rock and prayer
Attending a seminar on the evils of rock lyrics becomes more than a lark.

The Three Snusketeers
Homage to the King in a kangaroo scrotum.

Redirecting Traffic
Yet another prank.

We do not, however, consider such peril to be a bad thing.
