In 1634, tulip bulbs were a form of currency in Holland.

The cap on the Snapple I had for lunch said so.

Don't ever bring that up around a Dutchman, Nanner ... It only leads to embarrassment since the Big Tulip Crash turned into a real nightmare for that bunch ... Just tell them the flowers are pretty, then quickly change the subject, something like, "So, why is it that most of the Dutch shoes are made of poplar wood?"

:cool:

I'll remember that, Willie. Thanks for the heads-up

Gawd. I'm so bored.

Someone just make up some rumor for me, okay?
