What are inventors and inventions?
Inventors are the people who think up useful stuff that no one has thought of before. They may come up with an idea "as a whole" or may take pieces of this idea and that idea to make something new and unique. Inventions are the things inventors create; they are the product or the application that comes out of an inventor's idea. And history is full of inventors and inventions. There are many, many tens of thousands of them both.
Where does hoagie come from?
I believe it comes from a term that Philadelphians used to describe a sandwich that workers on a strip of land called "Hog Island" used to bring for lunch. That might just be an urban legend though.
Hoagie- where did the name come from?
I was born and raised in Philadelphia (Northeast section). According to local "folklore", the term "hoagie" (never spelled with a "y") came about from the sandwiches made of lunch meat (cold cuts to outsiders) by the wives and families of dock workers, mostly Irish, Italian and German immigrants, on Hog Island shipyard around the turn of the century. Hoagie is a misspelling and mispronunciation of "hog" as in Hog Island. Accordingly, they may have originally called "hoggies".The exact location of Hog Island today is the Philadelphia International Airport. The shipyard is long gone.As for where the term "hoagie" truthfully originated, no one knows for sure. It's one of those things that has been lost to the sands of time. Though, Wikipedia does confirm this local "folklore":The term hoagie originated in the Philadelphia area. Domenic Vitiello, professor of Urban Studies at the University of Pennsylvania asserts that Italians working at the World War II shipyard in Philadelphia, known as Hog Island where emergency shipping was produced for the war effort, introduced the sandwich, by putting various meats, cheeses, and lettuce between two slices of bread. This became known as the "Hog Island" sandwich; hence, the "hoagie".[7] The Philadelphia Almanac and Citizen's Manual offers a different explanation, that the sandwich was created by early twentieth century street vendors called "hokey-pokey men", who sold antipasto salad, along with meats and cookies. When Gilbert and Sullivan's operetta H.M.S. Pinafore opened in Philadelphia in 1879, bakeries produced a long loaf called the pinafore. Entrepreneurial "hokey-pokey men" sliced the loaf in half, stuffed it with antipasto salad, and sold the world's first "hoagie".[8] Another explanation is that the word "hoagie" arose in the late 19th-early 20th century, among the Italian community in South Philadelphia, when "on the hoke" was a slang used to describe a destitute person. Deli owners would give away scraps of cheeses and meats in an Italian bread-roll known as a "hokie", but the Italian immigrants pronounced it "hoagie."[9] Other less likely explanations involve "Hogan" (a nickname for Irish workers at the Hogg Island shipyard), a reference to the pork or "hog" meat used in hoagies, "honky sandwich" (using a racial slur for white people seen eating them) or "hooky sandwich" (derived from "hookie" for truant kids seen eating them).[3] Shortly after WWII, there were numerous varieties of the term in use throughout Philadelphia. By the 1940s, the spellings "hoagie" and, to a lesser extent, "hoagy" had come to dominate lesser user variations like "hoogie" and "hoggie".[10] By 1955, restaurants throughout the area were using the term "hoagie", with many selling hoagies and subs or hoagies and pizza. Listing in Pittsburgh show hoagies arriving in 1961 and becoming widespread in that city by 1966.[10] Former Philadelphia mayor (now Pennsylvania governor) Ed Rendell declared the hoagie the "Official Sandwich of Philadelphia".[11] However, there are claims that the hoagie was actually a product of nearby Chester, Pennsylvania.[12]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submarine_sandwich
