In a short story, Bukowski refers to publishers coming up from New Orleans to meet with him. What is the ficticious name that Bukowski gave to the publisher's wife?

yes yes yes
that was so fast, probably took you less time to find the answer
than for me to think of a question.
What a story , with the parrot on Gypsy Lou's shoulder and Bukowski talking back to the thing !
your turn!

Sexy Redhead
Actually, it took me a while to track it down to HWM. First I looked at SONN, then I looked at NOADOM, then I looked at EEEAGTOOM then I looked at HWM and Lo and Behold! :)
Why am I doing this to myself? A nice Saturday afternoon and NOW I HAVE TO COME UP WITH A QUESTION! OK :confused::confused::confused:
OK, here's a pretty easy one:
What was the nickname of the sexy redhead Buk was crazy about in the Seventies?

When at Chelsey High, in the R.O.T.C.,
Hank won the Manual of Arms competition against a boy named Andrew Post.
He did win a medal, do you know what he did with that medal?

He tossed it down a street drain.
Who was the only female author that Buk thought was capable of writing well?

Question...
In what Black Sparrow book did Bukowski mention his time of birth, and what time did he give?
Okay, if I remember correctly, he mentions it in the screenplay of Barfly (in a conversation with Tully) and gives his time as 10 PM. (This from memory, so please correct me if I'm wrong...I no longer have a copy in my possession.) Anyway, best wishes to all and I concede to the next questioner...

well, that wasn't even 12 hours poptop.
what the heck?
what the heck?
Sorry, hoochmonkey, for jumpin' the gun... but anyone who can verify the answer one way or another will still score. Anyone? Book, page, and reference?
Since there has been no response to the original question in almost two days (and 'twas not a trick question), let's forget about it and move on to a substitute to keep the thread alive:
What are the three missing words and where does Bukowski use the following phrase: "your ___ _____ are shrinking up like a dead ____ out of Norway under a sheet of snow."
Good luck.

Six Dollars, Dick
And I found it on the internet and I do not know where it was used, so I'll ask for half credit, but will allow the person that can name the source to ask the question.

Hi bospress,
Thanks. The full quote is, "...your six dollars are shrinking up like a dead dick out of Norway under a sheet of snow," said by Bukowski in Hostage when he was well into his cups toward the end of his reading. I dropped out three words because I thought most listeners would have played Hostage to death (I sure have) and be familiar with his reference to "a dead dick out of Norway." Anyway, best wishes to all and you're up.

Hi,
This one should get answered pretty quickly.
What magazine published the most poems by Bukowski and how many issues did he appear in? Also, when were the first and last times that he was published in this magazine?

right, right, right. I think that Fogel lists 87, but there are a few that he missed. 93 is probably closer, if not dead on.
