| Transcript | KING AND QUEEN COTTON (OH YEAH!) '53- A girl was asked to write an essay on "Man" and submitted the following: "Man is what woman has to marry. He drinks, smokes, swears and doesn't go to church. Both sprang from apes, but woman sprang farthest." * * * * A June Bride asked her husband to copy the radio cooking recipe one morning. The poor boy did his best, but unfortunately got two stations on at the same time. One was broadcasting the morning exercises and the other the recipe. This is what he got: "Hands on hips, place one cup flour on the shoulders, raise knees and depress toes and wash thoroughly in one-half cup of milk. In four counts, raise and lower the legs and smash two hard-boiled eggs in a sieve. Repeat six times. Inhale one and one-half tea- spoonful of baking powder and one cup of flour, breathe naturally and exhale and sift. "Attention! Jump to a squatting position and bend the whites of eggs backward and forward over head, and in four counts make a stiff dough that will stretch at the waist. Lie flat on the floor and roll into a marble the size of a walnut. Hop to a standstill and boil to a gallop afterward. In ten minutes, remove from the fire and dry with a towel. Breathe naturally and dress in warm flannels and serve with fish soup." |
