Wrestle You Way Into the New Year with Toni Storm

In the spirit of total transparency, I started staging posts to cover all of 2024 way back in the late summer of 2023, because I loved the notion of filling my blog in it's 12th year with more posts than ever before.  A lot of that was finding the random pictures I've collected and putting them on posts.  I found this collection of someone I believe is a professional wrestler, in a vaguely western themed photo shoot, and decided to kick of the year with this.  So enjoy.  Or not.  The last few years have been a crap shoot.  God may not play dice with the universe, but he sure does play Russian Roulette with you.

Pondering that Picture of Josephine Marcus Earp, aka "Sadie"


Josephine "Sadie" Marcus Earp was the mistress-turned-wife of famed lawman Wyatt Earp.  Legend has it that, searching her family belongings after her death, a nude photograph of Mrs. Earp fell out of  book that had belonged to her husband.  This image might have been it- hard to tell, as as I've read that this isn't really Sadie, but popular legend says it is.  This is back in the days before you whipped your phone out of your pocket to text nudes to your boyfriend; heck, this was before digital cameras and Polaroid.  In the 1880's you really had to go out of your way to get a naked picture to your loved ones.

This image was recreated in the dueling Wyatt Earp films of the 1990's.  Tombstone is most people's favorite, but Mrs. Slap and I agree that Wyatt Earp was best.  They both did a nice job with Sadie.

Who Is Barry Denton?

Who is Barry Denton?  I have no idea.  Apparently he owns a ranch, and traveled a lot.  More importantly, he takes great photographs.  Even more importantly, they often involve less than fully clad cowgirls.  More Barry Denton, I say!
