    Can I ask what a "prescription pattern blonde" is? Is that fancy Harvard talk for bottle blonde? I am not sure how many ladies would be allowed in if this were a restriction these days.

    If Perez Hilton wrote it, it would be "Girls with man hands, slutty girls, fat girls, famewhore girls, closeted effeminate guys, fugly girls, and desperate girls."

    And none of them were Jews. Or black. Or Hispanic. Or Asian. I guess this would be what Alito calls, the good 'ol days. Sigh.

    @Trulymadlyme: Well, to be fair, he does mention the "enticing Spanish." But even the "piquant Hungarian" trumps the blacks, Jews and Asians, apparently.

    But you have to admit, he does write this quite eloquently and very appreciatively and respectfully of the fact that there are women in attendance. It wasn't a He-Man Woman Haters Club about how women shouldn't be there, but a guy going "Fuck yeah! Chicks at baseball games in 1909! Woo!" I kinda dig that.

    @L'Adelina: it would sound something like, "copper-haired goddesses and auburn Amazons..."


    I thought it was beautifully written... and really, it was 100 years ago so that gets a pass, right? There have been worse things said about women yesterday.

    There's girl kabobs, girls creole, girls gumbo, pan fried, deep fried, stir fried. There's pineapple girls and lemon girls, coconut girls, pepper girls, girl soup, girl stew, girl salad, girls in potatoes, girl burgers, girl sandwiches.


    That's about it.

    I see that all the redheads were omitted. Probably because we were all cowering in shadow, as usual.

    This reminds me of the Helen Gurley Brown skit on SNL: "I think we should embrace women of all types - thin women, slender women, tiny women, narrow women, long, lanky women, tall, skinny women, svelte women.. there's room for all of us on God's green earth."
