While watching Red Hot Riding Hood on Cartoon Alley we wondered what Red was asking for when she crooned "Daddy, I want the B-19." A search yielded this gem of American slang and pop culture: The Warner Bros. Cartoon Companion. Everything from "A card" to "Planet X" and beyond is here, with references to the cartoons the phrases appear in. This is just an amazing resource.

(Oh, and the B-19, as suspected, was a bomber. Why any self-respecting showgirl would want one, I'm not quite sure, but then, I always get the feeling I'm missing stuff when I watch Tex Avery's cartoons)
