How to make Peso sign?
Q. How to make a Peso sign in Windows? I've seen a few threads, nothing seems to work. Some suggested the backtracking overwrite method. Barbaric. I hope there's something simlpler out there. One site ( suggested (Alt+20B1) but when I press B, my Adobe Acrobat dialog box pops up. I tried it in another computer, still no good. I just want something simple like Alt+164 for the n character.

A. Hello there my friend. I think you are from the Philippines and want to get the Philippine Peso sign that's a P with a double hyphen across it right? I think the best would probably the overwriting suggestion you mentioned or inserting a picture of a Peso sign or lastly, if acceptable, just use PHP (the international ISO code). Unfortunately, the Peso sign is not a part of the ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) table and you won't be able to produce it simply by using Alt + a combination of 3-digit numbers. Until the time arrives when Peso is included in the ASCII table, I guess you have to use the provided solutions above. Sana nakatulong! Good luck!

McDonald's commercial with peso sign and industrial look?
Q. Okay, am I reading a plot into this that is not there? There is a Mexican holding up a sign with something like 7.90 pesos. Then he holds up a sign with a different amount. On the other side of the screen is a hispanic guy eating something from the McDonalds dollar menu. He is in a hammock and surrouded by flowers and blue skies. HE motions and invites the Mexican in. The message is that the "dollar" menu is consistent and good. The implication is that he is inviting the poor Mexican into our country to enjoy our consistent monetary system and our consumer products. The next scene, the Mexican that just came in invites a women in who was doing the same thing with a sign. Again, this appears to be telling them to come on in, then… [cont.]

My 2nd ex wife sent me a paper to sign and its in tagalog, should I get her sister to translate it for me?
Q. The only thing I can make out is something about 12,000,000 pesos. Here Sister lives in the same State where I live.

A. If your 2nd ex-wife is only demanding 12,000 pesos, I must say that she is being really generous and letting you off her hook at a special bargain, discount price ! Grab the offer fast, if you know what is good for you - before your 1st and 3rd ex-wives [and even your future 4th ex-wife to-be] get wind of whatever is going on, and send you their demands as well, written in Visayan. ...Or simply claim ignorance of the Tagalog language, in a formal reply [in English, of course !] and ignore the paper. Let her spend money on getting an official translator to send you the English version - which will give you enough time to do a disappearing act ! Best of Luck. You'll really need it.

who is JMBond in relation to the 1972 argentine GP?
Q. I have just obtained a one peso note signed by Fangio Hill Peterson Cevert & Mr Bond? can any one help???
Asked by PeMcDee - Thu Dec 10 12:17:21 2009 - - 5 Answers - 1 Comments

A. Are you sure it's "JM Bond"? If the signature is a bit untidy, could it be "JM Bordeu"? He is somebody who would fit with being at the Argentinian GP with Fangio. If the signature is a bit like "Bordeu", then your man is Juan Manuel Bordeu, an Argentinian driver who was a protege of Fangio. His hopes of a top-flight international racing career were ended by an accident early in 1961 (he kept racing in Argentina), and he became a FISA (forerunner of the FIA) delegate in 1973. He died aged 56 in 1990. Here he is with Fangio: Great bit of memorabilia, btw. Well done.

Can you enforce a sales contract provision stipulating payment in US dollars only?

A. Article 1249 of our civil code says that "the payment of debts in money shall be made in the currency stipulated". Only when it is not possible to deliver such currency is it allowed to deliver the payment in a currency which is legal tender in the Philippines. This provision went through several amendments, including earlier ones which held that this provision is void. But the most recent amendment under RA 8183 has reaffirmed the validity of this provision. Therefore, if your contract, provides for payment to be made in US dollars, then by God, your debtor must make the payment in US dollars. The exception mentioned by the law (i.e. impossibility to deliver the currency stipulated) refers to one which is not created by the simple… [cont.]

Generally speaking is a strong currency a sign that your country is strong and respected economically?
Q. and a weak currency a sign that you are not that respected and considered weak economically? I ask this because I remember the days when the dollar was strong and if you visited some other countries like Mexico and it would take 1500 pesos to buy one dollar. Back then, I thought that meant that our dollar was reflecting the strenght of the american economy vis a vis theirs. So if our dollar today is crashing, and when you look at all the other problems going on in the american economy from record foreclosures to high budget deficits and trade deficits to inflation to declining real wages, loss of 15 % of our manufacturing sector, outsourced jobs,high health care costs and high gas prices etc..etc.. and when you see the dollar crashing… [cont.]

I would say that the burden is on your friend to show some document using this symbol and referring to any other currency. He will be unable to do so. He is trying to cheat you and he knows it. Tell him you will accept payment in pesos when he shows you some support to his claim. Remind him that your claim is supported in every retail store, bank document, website and newspaper in the country. The burden is therefore on him to show otherwise. I was mistaken "absolute certainty" notwithstanding. However, that symbol used in the US with no appending letters does refer… [cont.]
