Three old ladies were sitting side by side in their retirement home, reminiscing about the good old days.

The first lady recalled when she used to go shopping at the green grocers, and demonstrated with her hands, the length and thickness of a cucumber she could buy for a penny.

The second old lady nodded, adding that onions used to be much bigger and cheaper back then also, and demonstrated the size of two big onions she could buy for a penny a piece.

The third old lady remarked, “I can’t hear a word you’re saying, but I remember the guy you’re talking about.
