Afternoon my fellow sheiks and shebas. It’s the end of the year, a great year, the best year ever. 1918 has been a real duck soup for ole CJ and before I hop in my breezer and hit the docks to pick me up a bell-bottom or two, I want to take this chance to remind you all of everything this year that was the bee’s knees. You might think 1918 was a terrible year but to that I say, “Applesauce!” Why you’re probably just some bluenose who can’t appreciate the fact that the last 12 months were the cat’s pajamas, a real doozy you hear.
Who can say 1918 was a bad year when Mabel Normand lit up the screen in Mickey? Why you’re all wet if you didn’t thumb through every page of The Magnificent Ambersons. Now that book was a real whoopee. And who among didn’t get absolutely zozzled every time we heard “Tiger Rag” and fox trotted until the sun chased the stars away?
Yes, I say 1918 was a real pip. The music, the movies, the literature, and the games. Who could forget the games? This was the year you needn’t be an egg to have a good time, and before it’s curtains for 1918, I wanted to remind all you janes and palookas out there of the games people across the country couldn’t stop yammering about.
