I hate to say it, but these "nickels" are a dime a dozen.

GOOGLE "WOODEN NICKLES" and you can have the song added as a ringtone on your cell phone.

That's what Ol' Homer calls progress over 80 years -- from rectangular nickles in 1939 to wooden nickles on your cell phone.

Where's that 1907 Cobb & Edwards hickory stick............?


When you Google "wooden nickles", it correctly asks you:

"Did you mean: "wooden nickels?"


And when you add 80 years to 1939, you get 2019.



School days, school days,
Dear old golden rule days.
'Readin' and 'ritin' and 'rithmetic,
Taught to the tune of a hick'ry stick.
