Geisha Girls Get Gay

I was watching a video on YouTube last night: American Experience: PBS: Pearl Harbor Surprise and Remembrance. There was a segment about US/Japan relations,  Japanese culture and American perceptions of the Japanese and this was a title card of a snippet from a documentary made before the war.

If you saw something like that these days, you'd think it was porn, huh?

Not only the times have changed, so have definitions of words.

Cruising Through the Documentary

I was watching a YouTube documentary How World War II Bomber Crews Worked and was in a part of the video that was a little dull, consisting of briefings given by the various group commanders and tacticians. I was just about to fast-forward through the fifth or sixth one I had watched in a row when one guy really caught my eye, looking so familiar.


I think Tom Cruise's grandfather was in the 8th Air Force during WWII.
