Vort Posted July 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 When I was 22, I had dual lateral ankle ligament reconstruction surgery performed by the all-too-aptly named Dr. Payne. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vort Posted July 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 I know a woman whose first husband, a man named "Gay", turned out to be homosexual. The marriage was short-lived. This would have been in the latter half of the 1950s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vort Posted July 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 Joseph Smith, restorer of the Church of Jesus Christ in these latter days. 3 Nephi 22:16 (Isaiah 54:16) Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work... (Fwiw, I think the internal evidence is overwhelming that Nephi was a metalsmith.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeuroTypical Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 (edited) I used to get contact lenses in Salt Lake by a guy named Dr. Bogus. I'm happy to say this thing isn't an automatic truth. He was a very genuine Dr. And also, when they came to Salt Lake to film Steven King's The Stand, he also provided yellow contacts which were used by the motherly prophet lady. I assume some choice is inherent in the matter. A co-worker told me the story of Richard Tingle, who didn't have to take the pride in introducing himself that he did. But he did. With flair, and much obvious enjoyment. Edited July 24, 2019 by NeuroTypical Vort 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a famous short track race car driver named Dick Trickle. I think he was famous mostly for his name, which I can't really see has anything to do with race car driving. But perhaps it's meaningful that "race car" is a palindrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texan Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 Liberace claimed that his first frisky girlfriend was Miss Bea Haven. (Say it fast.) The sad circumstances around Liberace's health and death seem to cast doubt on whether that was her real name, or whether she was even a woman, but it's still a nifty name. I almost named my cat after her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeuroTypical Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) I've always liked Helen Hunt, and I've absolutely loved it when she's got a job like admin or post office package retriever or some such. Because when people ask me where their package is, I get to tell them to go to Helen Hunt for it.

Yes, in the second half of my original post when I wondered whether Liberace's first misbehavin' girlfriend was not a woman, I meant "she" was probably a man, not an underage girl or something else. But I probably shouldn't laugh. I read a biography of Liberace some years ago, and the only thing I remember (besides Ms. Haven) is that I would not want to live his life.
