Scarlett, Rhett and Tallulah

BY BRIAN HICKS

When she was born, her family still had to saddle up the horses to get into town.

Air conditioning and television were ideas too fanciful to even consider, and the only folks guaranteed the right to vote were white men with some schooling. Mark Twain was still walking the Earth, but he didn't feel real good.


Bryan Hicks is the new Willard Scott. Let me save you the time to link on this as this is about a 100 year old lady named Tallulah (I accept your gratitude). This is another one of those "Hey, let's laugh at old people and what they didn't have." articles. Let's jump 100 years into the future and see how one would write an article about today, shall we?

When she was born, her family still had to climb into these big things called Hummers which used gasoline.

Cold fusion and memory receptors were ideas too fanciful to even consider, and the only folks guaranteed a right to decide an election were people from Ohio and Florida. Stephen Hawking was still rolling the Earth, but he didn't feel real good.

See. Rather easy. And unless Mark Twain used the quote didn't feel real good, we are in the realm of some really bad grammar.
