I read that too. He looks like someone just told him he was dismissed.

This is a common expression from a heavy laudanum user. I believe it is caused by opiate induced constipation. I'll never forget the night Duniway went on that bender and smashed up the Union Club after he found out Wilma "Gams" Fitzpatrick was twerking while dancing with a couple of the FSPBs.

Ah, the Union Club. That was certainly one of those nights during which you wonder how a gentleman keeps it together from mid-Tuesday through about 11:30 a.m. on Friday. The very fact that he reportedly thought he had a chance with Gams was semi-laughable. Sure, she might have been rumored to have given him an Old Fashioned at the Ravalli turnout up the 93 like five years prior after a half bottle of hooch, but that wasn't love to Gams. That was sport. She sure could twerk something fierce, however. Ol' D was barking up the wrong dogwood by challenging the FSPBs.

So very true! I do believe you may have the location of their date incorrect. I believe it actually was the 2nd Annual Butter Days in Stevensville. Following the embarrassing incident with "Gams" and Duniway it was from then after known as the Stevensville Creamery Picnic.

Yep.

Was it "Gams" or "Gums?" I think we need to set the record straight, once and for all.

Remember, mouthguards may be a relatively new dental appliance, but good old bruxism...well that's been around forever. Just sayin.

Officially "Gams." She might have been colloquially called, "Gums" for a few years based on aptitude alone, but that was not her official nickname. If you had seen those stems, you would know why. For about a seven-year stretch, she was something else. Legs. For. Days. Remember, however, this is someone's somewhat-fictional great aunt we're talking about.

Are you speaking from a strictly photographic or "oral" history that you've been given to understand? And if it was an oral relation, was it given by Sherrold "Sweatpants" Fournier? If it was indeed the latter, I'm sorry to say that I must discount your version, as Sherrold was a known serial semi-public play-pocket. Apologies if this has been previously posted.

Yeah, I think we went over this a few years back. If I recall correctly, Sherrold was indeed a semi-public to public play-pocket. That guy would rip a sweatpant boner in church if you let him. He did, however, invent the "army helmet waistband" technique that inspired many. He also recorded a song to the tune of "Rhinestone Cowboy" regarding sweatpant boners.

"Like a sweatpant boner . . . . "

Sherrold didn't ever cross swords with my crew back in those days. My account of Gams is of first hand knowledge. I think Big G might even have some video evidence that he took on his iPhone back before the War.

Don't tell me about that Son of a Bitch. He ran with those thugs from the Gulch. He still owes me twenty cents from the hamburgers I bought him at the 1936 4th of July Rodeo in Lincoln. He was a Facebook bully back in high school.

This is a common expression from a heavy laudanum user. I believe it is caused by opiate induced constipation.

This woman wrote a dark novel about the Victorian era, and it features many references to laudanum.

The author's name is Christie Stratos. You can read about her here:

I haven't read her novel or anything about her. I just like looking at her photo.

 

[CDAGRIZ]

As do I, AWF. While not a classic beauty, with the right clothes and hair, she could be very striking. Not to mention the fact that she's about the level at which we might have a chance. Right in the sweet spot.

 

[AllWeatherFan]

I just like the jaunty eyebrows.

 

[CDAGRIZ]

She does have a jaunty look to her. Good call. It's like she knows something I want to know, but she's not going to tell me. I wonder what it is . . .

That's my wife, you son of a bitch!

 

[CDAGRIZ]

Of course it is. You've always had a thing for a jaunty brow. She looks like she knows her way around a pool table after 11 on a school night.

Surprised that AWF is browsing blogs by researchers named Geerte from the Netherlands?...I am not!
