Look closely at the underwear that Peter didn’t want for Xmas, it says “Jock of the Loom”. That’s a parody of both “Jockey” and “Fruit of the Loom”, both are underwear brands.
Sam Cooke would have been 14 in 1946.And I would imagine Sam Cooke’s dad’s rant about his son’s report card: “Looks like you don’t know much about geography. Don’t know much trigonometry. Don’t know much about algebra. Don’t know what a slide rule is for. Now, you don’t claim to be an A student, but you’re trying to be. For maybe by being an A student, you can win my love for you.”
But you do know that you love me, and you know that if I love you too, what a wonderful world this would be!
