  1. Wow, that was very nearly a Coke Zero shooting out my nose moment.
  2. Did he have the words in front of him???
  3. That's what MacArthur told us in the Philippines before he left us. That bastard.
  4. That pitch was like 30 mph in that old clip. Modern players would have hit it into the lake.
  5. the "hispanic" screws with the effect. i don't know what they called them back then :cry: I'm almost certain I've seen the term hispanic used on documents from around that era when I was doing museum work.
  6. Screencaps I took: http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/OleMissCub17/screen6.jpg http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/OleMissCub17/screen1.jpg http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/OleMissCub17/screen2.jpg http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/OleMissCub17/screen3.jpg http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/OleMissCub17/screen4.jpg http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh153/OleMissCub17/screen5.jpg
  7. Lilly's non-reaction was the greatest part of that meltdown.
  8. haha, I'm guess late 1500s, around Stratford-on-Avon, England WRONG! It's 1948 Chicago. That's how our grandparents talked when they were younger, right?
  9. a bit too much, "pard". niggardly means cheap or stingy he knows what it means, dammit! his grandfather gave his life to make sure that those people would never be free! Exactly!
  10. Eerly, for to seen the grete fight, Cubbies Unto hir rest wenten they at nyght Of lordes upon battes and ballyes. Ther maystow seen devisynge of Braves.
  11. Dude....."auto-car"? It's freaking 1948. People weren't cranking their cars up with levers outside Wrigley. Dost thou knowest the meaning of the term: "Party Pooper?" Howest abouts: "Buzz Kill?" fair enough...

  13. Did you stab a colored man for being uppity? kent mercker
  14. I love how most of us, caught myself as well, are treating 1948 language like it's the 19th century or something. Most of our grandparents were like 30 in 1948, it's not really that long ago.
  15. i'd let her stay at home, raise the kids and cook me dinner! women ain't good but for three things...cookin', cleanin', and pleasures of the flesh.
  16. It's 1940's United States, not 1880's England. A gay fellow then? I dunno, probably would have said "gay man". I don't recall my grandfather ever using the word "fellow."
