There seems to be different definitions of “Tropy Wife”. I am recently reading that it means “Gold Digger”, but that is not what I remember hearing when the term first came about. I always thought a Tropy Wife was more along these lines, "She is usually beautiful & may be younger than Hubby. She is also educated, socially skilled & “accomplished.” In the old days, accomplishments were fancy sewing, playing an instrument & speaking French; now, athletic skills & the right sort of volunteer work are what count. She might work—as an entrepreneur or as a professional. But she will have time to look good on Hubbie’s arm as he moves in more rarefied circles."
I had always understood the “official” reason for denying Ho Chi Min was that France was our NATO ally and we did not want back a “war” against our ally
Think I became a “regular” reader sometime in high school. I was in 6th or 7th grade when Doonesbury started. And I had the S&G album “Bridge Over Troubled Waters”
I have never been to a Tea Party meeting, but I have seen some websites. Not an “Official” website, but I’ve followed links to articles posted on Facebook. If ignorance scares you, seeing these sites would be terrifying!
