Concerning "that's all she wrote", who exactly is "she", and how come "she" does write much of anything?

"For Petes Sake" Who is Pete and why is it for his sake? Wait right here...i'll go find out... This is what we found, through a quick search of Google.... : Biblical origins. Think of St Peter. Think of the omnipresent medieval church and think of hitting your thumb with a hammer. You can't swear, else the local priests will have you up before the Bishop and the Lord alone knows what the outcome of that will be, so you exclaim, in appropriate tone of voice, "For Saint Peter's sake" and carry on erecting the shelves. This phrase was amended to "For Pete's Sake" in later, less religiously oppressive, times. You're welcome |

Also, concerning the phrase, "they say....." - who are "they", and why does what "they" say carry so much clout?

Concerning "that's all she wrote", who exactly is "she", and how come "she" does write much of anything? That must be like 'it ain't over til the fat lady sings"

Concerning "that's all she wrote", who exactly is "she", and how come "she" does write much of anything? This is what i found.. The standard theory about "That's all she wrote" is that it arose during World War II and refers to the "Dear John letters" received by many servicemen from their sweethearts back home bluntly announcing the end of their relationships. Such letters were so common during the war that "That's all she wrote" may have originally been the punch line to a joke: a GI (in some versions, not even named John) receives a letter containing only the salutation "Dear John," with the "It's over" part left unwritten and implicit. When questioned by his buddies about the rest of the letter's contents, he replies, "That's all she wrote." In modern times though, this could refer to the amount of overdraft checks written to wal-mart. |
