That's quite the...depth to her character.
I just realized -- she's not a reporter, she just bought the team.
And now Frankie's singing to her.
Numfar! Do the dance of joy.

Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Ah. Yes, a reporter might be a bit much. This way, she just has to have money (which would probably also help with the singing, and swimming)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
And people dislike musicals for being "unrealistic" ::pfft::

And Gene just climbed what looked like two stories worth of Victorianish gingerbread trim to talk to her. It was impressive, especially since he managed to do it without messing up his suit.
Oh! During the off-season, Gene and Frank have a vaudeville act.
Hmm. Training food: steak, spinach, mashed potatoes, and several milkshakes. Frankie's trying to gain weight, I think.

Observation: when people in the '40s wanted to sound old-timey, they pronounced rodeo (as in, the place with horses and stuff) as "ro-day-oh." This is at least the second movie I've noticed this in.

I think that's how they actually pronounced it in the 40s. It's still how you pronounce Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills.
Sort of like the older pronounciation of Los Angeles with the hard "G."

Yeah, I know that's how you pronounce Rodeo Drive, but I guess I'd assumed that "ro-day-oh" was the newer pronunciation.
This movie is from the forties, but set around the turn of the century. Now I'm trying to think if I can remember hearing it one way or the other in any other movies from the forties that were actually set during the forties.

Poor SA. She's cat allergic, and suffering greatly, so of course the cats love her and won't leave her alone.
