"Go West, Young Man, go west."

If this shit is funny now just think how funny it must have been in 1940! The Marx Brothers movies have always been my favorites. This is a scene from, "Go West."
The name of Groucho Marx's character, "S. Quentin Quayle", caused a stir when the film was first released due to the subtle but clear joke: the use of the term "San Quentin quail", which means "jail bait".
I went west last year and spent six months in Las Vegas. It didn't work out so now I'm back in my hometown. Houston is a good town for a laid-back, old soul, like me. Enjoy your Thursday.
