    Bee's Knees=Cool

    Cheaters are shoes i believe

    Main Drag is the main road

    Gatecrasher is somebody who crashes a party uninvited



    These all seem fairly obvious

    Ahaha. I just had to do something similar. For the 1920's in Canada portion of our unit.

    The Bee's Knees is "really great". haha Cool would suffice.

    Cheaters are glasses. As in eye glasses. Like you're using them to cheat and see. Get it? :D

    A gatecrasher (oh man I love that Keller Williams song... :D) is a party crasher. Or someone who's not wanted.

    Jake means "okay" like "yeah its goin okay. " "its jake"

    Lounge Lizards are pretty much just ladie's men, guys who get a lot of action. :rolleyes:

    Main drag is like main street. Or sometimes like.. "the place to be"

    Not quite sure of cement overshoes... Ahah.. Sorry.

    if i had to guess id either say cement overshoes would either be

    1) a really bad dancer, like cause they can't move their feet cause they have cement overshoes

    2) or somethign to do with the mafia...

    got this off wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cement_shoes , it is not "overshoes" but yeah
