If you've ever looked into the history of limericks, you'll find that they started out as naughty poems. I believe the second limerick was written when you could actually get something for a quarter at a restaurant.
Limerick 1
An old maid down in Boyne City
Lived all alone with her kitty.
She looked under her bed
Where her boyfriend had fled
And what she did to him was a pity.
Limerick 2
A young man down on the Border
Went in a restaurant to order.
The waitress was shy,
The boy winked his eye,
And his check was 10 bucks and a quarter.
