A short snorter is a banknote inscribed by people traveling together on an aircraft. The tradition was started by Alaskan Bush flyers in the 1920s and spread through the military and commercial aviation. During World War II short snorters were signed by flight crews and conveyed good luck to soldiers crossing the Atlantic. Friends would take the local currency and sign each other's bills creating a "keepsake of your buddy's signatures".If you signed a short snorter and that person could not produce it upon request, they owed you a dollar or a drink — The word "snort" is slang for "mixed drink". "Short" is less than a full measure

Last Issue of the $2 United States Note — The last delivery of $2 United States notes was made on 29 July 1965. For the next 11 years no $2 notes of any type were printed.

The $2 note was first issued in 1862 as a United States Note (Legal Tender Note). It was used continuously until 1966 when the only class of US currency it was then assigned to, United States Notes, began to be discontinued. In 1976 use of the two-dollar denomination was resumed as part of the United States bicentennial ($2.00 is equal to two hundred cents) and the two-dollar bill was finally assigned as a Federal Reserve Note, with a new design on the back featuring an engraved reduction of the painting, "The Signing of the Declaration of Independence," by John Trumbull, replacing the previous design of Monticello. The original Trumbull painting portrayed 47 people, 42 of whom were signers of the Declaration (there were 56 total). However, because of limited space on the note 5 of the 47 people in the painting are not included on the engraving (on the far left and far right of the painting) — The farthest four figures on the left (George Wythe, William Whipple, Josiah Bartlett and Thomas Lynch, Jr.), and the farthest two figures on the right (Thomas McKean and Philip Livingston), and seated in the left rear, George Walton, are missing in the engraving. Two other unknown figures are superimposed in the engraving in between Samuel Chase and Lewis Morris and between James Wilson and Francis Hopkinson, bringing the total number of figures on the back of the two-dollar bill to 42. John Dickinson is painted in the portrait, but was not actually present at the signing of the declaration. Other differences between the original painting and the engraving are:

• A patterned rug that appears in the Trumbull painting was removed from under the feet of the five men standing in the center.
  
• In the painting, Thomas Jefferson is twisted about 90 degrees and his leg is outstretched like a ballet dancer in order to stand ever so slightly on John Adams's foot. The two men had a lot of respect for each other, but they were also political rivals for decades, belonging to opposite parties and running against each other for president. In the $2 bill version, though, the two men's feet are touching toe to toe.
  
• Finally, there is the curious case of James Wilson, who would eventually go on to become an associate justice of the United States Supreme Court. In the place of the smooth-shaven, white-haired gentleman in Trumbull's painting, the $2 bill includes a young man with dark, close-cropped hair and a short goatee.

First day issues of the new bicentennial $2 bills could be taken to a post office to get a 13¢ stamp postmarked "Apr 13 1976" — April 13 honors the original colonies and Thomas Jefferson's birthday (Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence)
