re: #316 Catttt

My grandfather’s description of Aspen (he was a train engineer) was that it was nothing but miners and whores. He allowed as how it was not a safe environment, and he was correct. He put that in more colorful language than I did.

Remember the movie McCabe and Mrs. Miller?

the miners came in 49
the whores in 51
and when they got together
they produced the native son.
