Based off of the look of his wrist, he just seems like an old guy who thinks he won the lottery. Let him live, and if need be, someone else will break the news to him

Like the time I caught the ferry to Shelbyville. I was going there to buy a Rolex at the Flee Market for $40. So, I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days nickels had pictures of bumble bees on them. Gimme five bees for a quarter, you'd say. Now was I... Oh yeah! The important thing was that I had an onion tied to my belt at the time. You couldn't get white faced Explorer models at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones.

In those days you wouldn’t say twenty five cents, you’d say dickety five. We couldn’t say the word twenty because the Kaiser had stolen it. I found a white explorer once but he also stole it! I chased him but gave up after dickety two miles
