In 1974, it was easy to get skinny...

Why was it so easy to get skinny in the mid-70's? Because when you were on Weight Watchers, they offered you ideas like "Mackerelly" and "Rosy Perfection Salad" and "Caucasian Shashlik."

Cruise through the cards, if you dare. Just don't do it before lunch. Oh, and be sure to read the author's commentary on each card. It's quite hilarious.

Excerpt from the very funny and very under-rated Madonna movie, "Who's That Girl?" found at this site:

[Loudon] Fire hydrant, fire hydrant, fire hydrant, excuse me, fire hydrant.

[Nikki] Listen, why can't we go to the bank first?

[Loudon] No! We did one of your things already. We murdered the pimp and the fat man. Now it's time to do one of my things.

[Nikki] Is that what you're upset about? Should I tell you something, Trott? We did the world a favor. I mean those guys were scum. Hey, they weren't even scum. They aspired one day to be scum.

[Loudon] Nonetheless, nonetheless, nonetheless, double homicide was not on my agenda.

[Nikki] Look, I got a good idea. Why don't you just tell me the box number, and I'll go to the bank, and I'll meet you back here? It'll save time.

[Loudon] Listen to me, you little insane person! I'm not letting you out of my sight. I gave my word I would see you on that bus, and until that glorious moment comes, you and I are stuck together like glue, like Mutt and Jeff, Amos and Andy, Frick and Frack, Spic and Span, Yin and Yang, Arm and Hammer, Pork and Beans.
