A big 75 on it?

[Torsten]

Hi,

What exactly is 'a big 75'? In the Beemovie the main character bee gets trapped in an apartment room when it starts to rain. He suddenly sees a lamp on the ceiling and thinks that's the sun. He says '.... I don't remember the sung having a big 75 on it...'

So what is a 75?

Thanks,
Torsten

Yes, definitely a 75 watt bulb.

Torsten, you're really getting into the cartoons lately! Don't get addicted to them, like I am. :-D

Hi Hank and Jamie,

Thanks a lot for your answers which make perfect sense. Jamie, so which are you favorite cartoons?

I don't play favorites. I like everything from Popeye cartoons from the 1930s, through Woody Woodpecker from the 1940s, up through Dexter's Laboratory in the 1990s, all the way to Pixar creations today.
