Quote from Jay in Blasts from the Past
Gloria: Your uncle Erasmus Pritchett was a hero at the Alamo. But for the other side. Manny: Yeah, he hid in a closet during the fighting, then stole a dress and escaped by pretending to be a prostitute. Jay: What?! I don't believe you. Gloria: These are official church documents. In this part, it says that he traded military secrets for rum and a new corset. Manny: "To this day, in Nuevo Laredo, 'to Erasmus' means 'to cry facedown on the ground.'" Gloria: There's a picture of him cringing. Joe: I can't believe I named my lizard Erasmus. Jay: It was wartime, Joe! We can't judge a man who has lived through that kind of hell. Manny: He spent his post-war years spreading the gospel of vegetarianism. Jay: I have no uncle.
