United States Gun Control Megathread
Oedipus Wreckx-n-Effect replied to Xoon's topic in Open Discussion
Off topic, but my favorite "American Tourist" story comes from a Belizian guide who I traded with to get some spearpoints. He said that the one thing Americans always did when he'd point out a plant or something was try to eat it. Every time. And even on the trip I took to one of the m=Mayan ruins with him, he picked some lemongrass and showed it to some tourists that were with us (I guess I was a tourist too technically) and they all tried to taste it. "It doesn't taste like lemon?" They exclaimed, and he just shook his head. -

A SH telethon hosted by Colli. All donations go to buying tickets to our not-lucky members (aka non Americans) so they can come shoot guns and carry knives and practice freedom of speech for a lovely vacation. Any money left over will be pooled in an attempt to buy sturgeon a sense of humor or purchase a new Deer Doll 3000 for me (my last one broke ).

But the real question toxn is dodging here is how would he deal with an overpopulation of feral hogs on his unproductive farm? And what if those hogs were white? Would it be ok to remove them? These are the truly damning questions that ache in our bossums.

I have no recollection of typing that previous reply, fyi. Also, I have half of my new book outlined. I had two false-starts on projects that, while good ideas, I couldn't find inspiration to write well enough to continue. This new project is different and fun.- 186 replies

Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell were their names if I recall. And I know that from a studio recording of Gloria by the Experience.

Historical Pictures Thread
Oedipus Wreckx-n-Effect replied to Sturgeon's topic in History, Culture, and Archaeology
This is Catherine Moylan, winner of the First International Pageant of Pulchritude and Seventh Annual Bathing Girl Revue, which was a beauty pageant held from May 15 to May 17, 1926, in Galveston, Texas. The previous editions of the Galveston Bathing Girl Revue had only featured contestants from the United States. However, during the 1926 event, one contestant from Mexico and another from Canada entered, giving the pageant its first international competitors. It was reported that around 160,000 people watched the bathing costume parade on the afternoon of the 16th. Judging was based on "beauty, form, grace, and personal charm. Costumes, props, and other decorations were not considered. As noted, Miss Dallas, Catherine Moylan (1904-1969), won the event, becoming the first Beauty Queen of the Universe. She was already a performer in the Ziegfeld Follies. For winning, Moylan received $2000, and a gold and silver plaque engraved with “Beauty Queen of the Universe”. Said Catherine: "I'm really overwhelmed by the results of the pageant, and my good fortune is almost more than I had hoped for. But I really don't feel much different than yesterday, when I was no more than 'Miss Dallas.'" She added that she would use the prize money to attend Southern Methodist University in Dallas. Catherine later signed with MGM Studios and appeared in several silent films before having roles in “Love On The Run” (1930) and “Our Blushing Brides” (1930). -
Just got around to watching this. It's hilarious.
