OK, last week you all accused me of putting up an easy contest so it would be over quickly, so I could go work on the greenhouse. Well, it is raining today, so I have ALL day. You will rue the day you complained about an easy contest. Today, you will all be defeated, and I will finally be able to have a victory breakfast in the morning. Let the Contest Begin!
is she Virginia Wolf? (purely based on the size of the probosis).
ReplyDeleteJoe,
ReplyDeleteThat entry is not going to get it done.
Ha! contest was too easy last week, huh?
PJM
is she Fanny Brice?
ReplyDeleteIt looks like Margaret Hamilton from the Wizard of Oz. That seemed too easy, so probably not!
ReplyDeleteKaren,
ReplyDeleteIt is not Fnny Brice
Icantdrive55,
It is not Margaret Hamilton.
Ha! You will all be defeated today.
PJM
PJM, you have done it this time. That is the ugliest man/woman I have seen in quite a while. It almost looks like the pictures of old gunfighters after they lost a gunfight and got propped up on a board (chair?) for the picture. I can't tell if the clothing is worn or just placed over the body frame.
ReplyDeleteMy guess is Calamity Jane in repose.
Good morning PJM
ReplyDeleteI'll try Charlotte Perkins Gilman.
Al,
ReplyDeleteYour entry is not going to be a winner.
Ray,
Sorry, not going to cut it.
Hmmm . . . perhaps I will win this week.
PJM
Katie Elder?
ReplyDeleteIndy, it is not Katie Elder.
ReplyDeletePJM
Agnes Nestor.
ReplyDeleteRay,
ReplyDeleteNope, not Agnes.
PJM
I'm gonna try again with 'Kate's birth name Catherine Horony, just in case I was disqualified for that reason.
ReplyDeleteIt sure looks her in like some of the photos of her and Doc Holiday.
No Indy, it is not Catherine Horony.
ReplyDeletePJM
My wild guess is Angelina Grimke
ReplyDeleteDag,
ReplyDeleteNot Angelina Grimke
PJM
Is it Annie Oakley?
ReplyDeleteMary,
ReplyDeleteIt is not Annie Oakley
PJM
It looks like a post-mortem photograph
ReplyDeleteMargaret Heffernan Borland?
ReplyDeleteCattle Kate, a.k.a. Big Nose Kate, the first woman hanged by vigilantes.
ReplyDeleteMathan,
ReplyDeleteSorry for my delay in responding. Rain let up, so I ran out and mowed the grass. Big mistake, got mud all over the mower tires.
It is not Margaret Heffernan Borland
It is not big nose kate.
PJM
How about Belle Star?
ReplyDeleteKitty B
I will guess Typhoid Mary.
ReplyDeleteNot Belle Star
ReplyDeleteNot Typhoid Mary
Is she your great-gran' ?
ReplyDelete;))

ReplyDeleteNot Calamity jane
ReplyDeleteNot Amelia Bloomer
Not a relative of mine.
Hmmm . . . looks like I might have stumped everyone.
PJM
Mary Surrat, who was hanged for conspiring with John Wilkes Booth?
ReplyDeleteIt is not Mary Stuart.
ReplyDeleteHow about May Lillie?
ReplyDeleteMary,
ReplyDeleteIt is not May Lillie
Elizabeth Hoagland, wife of Utah polygamist, George Q Cannon?
ReplyDeleteIt is not Elizabeth Hoagland
ReplyDeletePJM
I'm thinking Mr. PJM may have 'misled' us by choosing a photo of a man (in which case we have misled ourselves).
ReplyDeleteEmeline Pigott
ReplyDeleteNot Emeline Pigott
ReplyDeleteOscar Wilde
ReplyDeleteHa! Not Oscar Wilde. That was a Wilde Guess.
ReplyDeletePJM

ReplyDeleteIt is not margaret hamilton
ReplyDeletePJM
I will guess Ella Watson :)
ReplyDeleteIt is not Ella Watson
ReplyDeletePJM
Regardless of who ths turns out to be, I hope we get some backstory on it. The photo creeps me out.
ReplyDeleteJust put in a call to Mrs. PJM to pick up some powdered sugar and whipped cream for the victory breakfast. I feel certain I will be victorious this weekend!
ReplyDeletePJM
A wild guess: it's PHOTOSHOPped!
ReplyDelete, just having fun.
Last post removed my
ReplyDelete*jk* before the "just having fun".
Alrighty... I'm dying to know who this poor unfortunate gal is... when shall you reveal her identity???
ReplyDeleteIs it belle boyd?
ReplyDeleteI think we are traditionally tortured until after the morning crepes are consumed. Then the answer is revealed.
ReplyDeleteW.C. Fields?
ReplyDeleteIt is not Belle Boyd,
ReplyDeleteIt is not WC Field.
PJM
Is this Mother Bickerdyke?
ReplyDeleteNot Mother Bickerdyke,
ReplyDeletePJM
I still think it's a guy.
ReplyDeleteMight it be the other Grimke daughter Sarah Grimke
ReplyDeleteIt is not Sarah Grimke
ReplyDeletePJM
I have a feeling that if we saw this woman with eyes open and not clenching her lip, we would know her.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your breakfast!
Susan B anthony
ReplyDeleteNot Susan B. Anthony.
ReplyDeleteMy breakfast is all but a certainty.
PJM
Is it Lizzie Borden?

One last try before you enjoy your well deserved breakfast...Nellie Cashman?
ReplyDeleteNot Nellie Cashman.
ReplyDeleteI will rest assured of a victory tonight.
PJM
Possibly Marie Curie?
ReplyDeleteCharlotte Perkins Gilman, who wrote "The Yellow Wallpaper"?
ReplyDeleteOK, We have not had a correct answer, so I am the winner.
ReplyDeleteIt was Isma Martin, a confidence/con lady from the late 1800's and early 1900's. The picture was from her police file. She had many scams, but one of her favorites was to ride into town on a bicycle, and then claim to be a representative of a bicycle company. She would take deposits and payments for bicycle orders, and guess what . . . She never delivered any bicycles.
PJM,
ReplyDeleteWow. Good one. Enjoy your victory breakfast. The only thing I had right on this one was that it had a vaguely criminal aspect to it.
Goes to show that you just can't trust those biker chicks.
Dave
Congratulations on your win, Mr. PJM. Enjoy your victory breakfast!
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th of July to all, celebrate what independence we have left while you can.
She was apparent;y denied a pardon in order to help her repent.
