Send us your iReport” Yes, I got the message.
I love Joad's inclination to argue against homophobia with sexism (with "them mines ain't no place for women-folk"), and then proceeds to explain the merit of child labor
"I've seen 10 eagles in my life and I've kilt 9 of 'em, and I was sure that eagle was the one that gone away and came back again to taunt me.

I like Joad. We don't have enough politicians who understand that you can support both conservative viewpoints like gun rights and liberal ones like same-sex marriage.
God, I've never had to concentrate so hard to understand someone speak the same language as me. Even the Filipino lady downstairs makes more sense and all she says is 'PokPok' when she sees me.

Very common argument: "legal marriage was always defined as one man, one woman" Also true: for most of our society's history, marriage between people of different races was considered illegal. We seen the flaw in that, that we were hurting groups of people for no good reason, and so we redefined marriage to include interracial couples. Marriage has already been redefined once before; nothing is stopping it from being redefined yet again, and for the same reason.
Man... As a non-native speaker, I didn't get a single thing about what Joad said. I guess I'll have to practice my listening skills a little bit more. But It's a shame because it seems that this was very funny.

"I thought my brain leaked out of my head". He's really talking about those long, late nights when he was paired up w/ those strong men trying to stay warm from all that cave exploring.
