wiley and ALL: It was a bright, sunny morning when the ship
docked in Amsterdam. Joe had traded his watch for early shore
leave and now wandered down the gangplank to the waterside
below. Stalls were opening along the strand as vendors set out
their wares. Joe was hungry - as he had missed the morning meal.
Feeling some pangs - he ambled over to a stall whre the owner
was setting out "onions". Joe, innocently, picked up one and
took a bite - at the same time picking a florin from his pocket......
well, the owner went ballistic !!!! A passerby, informed Joe that
he had just taken a bite of a 10,000 florin tulip bulb....poor Joe -
as the constabularly hauled him away - he was heard to mutter:
WELL IT LOOKED LIKE AN ORDINARY ONION TO ME.
