    Years ago while working on a film as a Teamster I got to wander around inside the location we were using, a former Barbary Coast saloon and bordello that was owned at the time by famous Frisco ambulance chaser Melvin Belli. Those rooms in the back were incredibly small, just big enough for a sub twin bed. They were called cribs.

    Interesting video about the world's oldest profession in the wild, wild, West. It was a truly a sad life for many of the girls caught up in the seedy world of prostitution and being a madam was no picnic either. One of the most infamous western madams of American literature was the chillingly evil Cathy Ames Trask in the John Steinbeck novel, "East of Eden". My favorite madam of the movies was the beautiful Belle Watling in "Gone With The Wind". Belle not only ran a successful "sporting house" but was a loyal Confederate who hid Ashley Wilkes and other men in her home after a skirmish with the Yankees one night in Reconstruction-era Atlanta. As Rhett Butler once complimented her, "You are both shrewd business women (in comparison to his selfish wife Scarlett) but you, Belle, have a heart."

      Bad nicknames were common with prostitutes and organized crime bosses ("Scarface"), madames were both. It could be worse, like the fictional madame who had the most infamous name in James Bond lore (you know the one). In the novel "P.G." got her nickname from being a bisexual madame (and the only organized crime boss to refuse to sell out her country to Goldfinger, so guess she wasn't that much of a "p" after all).

    I was an extra on an Elizabeth Taylor project: ''Poker Alice.'' Out at Old Tucson. Ms Taylor played a woman poker shark who wins a cathouse in a bet. She then proceeds to manage it; George Hamilton was in it, too. I was a 'Sheepherder.' I was off grazing at craft service when they handed out the rubber Peacemakers, so I didn't get one. I asked an AD, ''Hey, where's my gun?'' He said, '' You're a Sheeprancher, you don't get one.'' Ironic, since a couple of my Dad's great uncles actually were sheep herders in NW New Mexico, starting with a Civil War land grant. They both died in 1918 from the Spanish Flu.

    Here’s some paragraphs from my analog horror old West series Mysteriarch Mythos Book 1:
    On the supposedly forbidden inhospitable surface near a place called Oanis Pond/Indigo Lake at the edge of the mostly abandoned frontier city of Faron’s Keep is the old rangers cabin known as Uruk-Návorus cabin, that’s within the derelict pioneers frontier park.
    Lately the normally deep azure waters of Oanis Pond/Indigo Lake have been a rather strange yet eerie shade of green with grey swirls and a boiling like appearance.
    However there’s also been a strange bubbles from a possibly unknown gas bubbling up to the waters surface from the lakes depths.
    No one knows what they are or where in the lakebed they’re coming from.
    At the bottom of the pond/lake are mysterious yet scattered ruins that include a stone gate with a plaque on it that has a strange letter like symbol carved onto it.
    There’s also a half of what looks like a serpent statue halfway on its side, leaning towards the sand.
    Those strange underwater ruins were once called the ancient megalithic city of Ur-Umnos/Cahokiri Creek, where the ancient culture known as the Sharmaciaquois civilization once lived.
    They’re were also known as the riverside pyramidal mound builders and the ancient founding ones.
    It was the people of the Sharmaciaquois civilization that first came up with the wilderness law known as the old west code of law, it was first established in the first frontier city of Ur-Umnos Cahokiri Creek.
    Which was located near the banks of the great Cahokiri River, that was also known as the Metacomena River/the river of Irocoquatel.
    That was named after the primordial serpent god of the same name.
    At some point in the distant ancient past the frontier city of Ur-Umnos Cahokiri Creek was mostly destroyed into oblivion and flooded during a event now known as ‘the great Occuvion Droplet invasion’/ the Occuvion order infiltration’, which happened in the year 1056.
    That was only a year before the first Great War of Malice occurred the following year.
    In the present year of 720012 the very same Occuvion droplets are beginning to awaken once again.
    The ancient horrors of the past and old universe from the lower dimensional reality ‘the unseen ‘ are also slowly yet silently materializing and re-emerging into the new reset universe within the higher dimensional reality ‘the quantum digital ‘.
    I hope you all really like these paragraphs from book 1 of my analog horror old West series Mysteriarch Mythos I’m writing.

    It took a woman with determination to do what she did, even with that nickname tagged on her. I'll bet it could of been a sort of advertisement for her as well. People just had to see if it was true or not.
    My kids had a pet black squirrel for a while named Nibblet cause all he would eat was canned corn. One of the coolest pets we ever had. When he got far more able to fend for himself, I had to take him to a rural wooded area and let him free. I felt like a dirty rotten rat for doing so. No I did not sing Born Free.
