Is Sophie really FCC-safe?
  Tue. 5/8/12 8:19pm Rummy Delbarton:

Sophie Tucker, the first of the Red Hot Mamas!
  Tue. 5/8/12 8:20pm Matt from Springfield:

Very polished gentleman? Shore ain't talkin' bout you.
  Tue. 5/8/12 8:22pm Hays Office:

He's polished after *she's* done with him, winkwink
  Tue. 5/8/12 8:22pm Matt from Springfield:

The FCC wasn't around till 1934, hopefully she should be grandfathered, er, Red Hot Mamaed in.
  Tue. 5/8/12 8:28pm Matt from Springfield:

It's your generations fault, building Model Ts on assembly lines fueled by burning arsenic!!
  Tue. 5/8/12 8:29pm Rummy Delbarton:

Hey Edison, you're still mad about Alf Landon losing.

Bessie and her jelly rolls again...

"Fun" fact, Bessie died and was buried in an unmarked grave. It was actually Janis Joplin who finally bought her a headstone. If Janis hadn't died young perhaps she could have taken a role in blues preservation.
  Tue. 5/8/12 8:34pm G:

Free Silver? Bah! The whole trouble started when the Interstate Commerce Commission was created!

Once cake has cooled, gently unroll and spread cake with jam or jelly and re-roll. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar or cover with whipped cream.

It never fails to satisfy.
  Tue. 5/8/12 8:38pm Billy Sunday:

Man, what I'd give for a little Leo Slezak right now. Or some Sarah Bernhardt. Or some Foghat.
