FlapperWant some extra credit? Of course you do! All you have to do is use conversational 1920′s slang for the rest of the week (yes, only appropriate slang). Here are some links that you might find interesting. By the way, the history of this country is not rooted in politics and economics alone. The study of language and its development over time is a fascinating one. If you are interested, please let me know. Thanks.
