#D231 (dollarization to dolomite)

I read from dollarization to dolomite. If I'm reading correctly, we don't REALLY know why we use the dollar sign. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dollar_sign Stonehenge isn't a dolmen but supposedly it is made up of dolmens. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolmen https://homework.study.com/explanation/is-stonehenge-a-dolmen.html Mountains! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolomites Rudy Ray Moore chose the name "Dolemite" for his character because he "heard a rhymed toast about an urban hero named Dolemite from a regular at the record store where he worked, and decided to adopt the persona as an alter ego in his act." but where that name came from exactly, I'm not sure. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolemite The word of the episode is "dolly".
