Ah, dusting off the old Chinese stereotypes, I see

Times have changed

You can practically hear the Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In organ music & laugh track while reading this.

Asian joke. Ha ha ha cough gag.

Should have asked him for some gum.

Reminds me of the Kinston Trio song, specifically the line “You are surprised I speak you ranguage, you see I was educated at UCRA”. Maybe not politically correct by today’s standards!

Some interesting topical references.

I always thought Grable’s legs were over rated. But a lot of the Hollywood sex symbols never really appealed to me.

In 1976 I worked at a Nuclear power plant. The guards there were required to know everyone that worked at the plant by face and name. It was a very effective security method.

Lol!

Oh dear, here come the snowflakes….

Compare with today’s Back To B.C.

Broke the stereotype when the interloper pronounced “Grable”.

Shibboleths.

Where’s ol’ FDR when you need him?

What really bothers me about the Maris asterisk is that there is nothing of the sort after McGwuire’s, Sosa’s or Bond’s records. Those three should all be given the same treatment that Lance Armstrong got.

Maybe, but they are just stupid!

Broadway Joe is hawking Medicare supplement plans now.

Boy, I really remember this one. But didn’t realize it came from here, or did they just pick it up from some comic.

Disgusting to see stereotypes like this.
