jgettings00 Valued Member United States 149 Posts	Posted 09/14/2013 6:13 pm I was watching the Simpsons late last night and I heard the grandpa Abe say that back in his day nickels used to have bees on them. And he said the exact line "give me five bee's for a quarter." Is that where you got it from? Because I was very confused by this thread the first time I read it hah. Report this Post to the Staff

Abe has a habit of rambling on about nothing and not really reciting true facts.

jbuck Moderator United States 188342 Posts	Posted 09/16/2013 2:07 pm Yeah, it was on the other night here and I thought about this thread. I would have posted sooner, but I try to unplug (at least from the internet) on the weekends. I am glad I was not the only one who caught it.
