"The Victorians delicately referred to her as "La Grande Horizontele."

"Homicidal temper; carried a whip. One of the most outrageous women of her time."

"So did her temper. When a man annoyed her, she typically would slash him across the face with the whip she always carried. On one occasion when a lover proved to be disappointing, she fired her pistol at the luckless romeo as he dodged ricocheting bullets while escaping down the street with his pants around his knees. But, on first meeting, she was charming, very charming"


Nice.

AAAHH!! I just saw him in "Strange Woman" with Hedy Lamarr, directed by Edgar G. Ulmer!!

Dissention -- Everett Dean Martin


Here's a related question: Which famous person in history would you want others to think of you as?

For me, it's Edmund Wilson.

Thank God you didn't say Marie Antoinette. When we had to pick French names back in school, my teacher allowed everyone else to pick their own but refused to let me pick mine citing I reminded her of Marie.

Joni Mitchell. I think my tongue's sharp enough, and I like irregular tunings :laugh:.

That doesn't bode well for you my dear :laugh:.

LMAO :laugh:

I don't know whether I should slap you or kiss you.

Well, I was gonna say Elmer Fudd :xoxo: :xoxo: :xoxo: :xoxo: :xoxo:

I, of course, am either Suzanne Sugarbaker or Belle Watlin' :laugh:

I do have a lot of Cary Grant/Gregory Peck in me though :eek: :laugh:

After reading up on him, I seriously don't see that comparison. :shrug:

As I sit here wondering why I'm the only female who's historical counterpart was a male... :confused:

Tell me about it!! I was like, great, this is what you think of me? She's like, no no no..i don't mean it in a bad way. Not a clue. Of course, if you were to compare me to a Queen, i'd prefer Elizabeth I, thanks.

hey at least you got on his list
male or not :D
