Can we call him 'ole one eye' instead?
OHHHHHH; the all knowing mystical one eye.
Hey I kinda like the ring of that.  If it happens again that what ya'll can call me  ;)

Honestly, I've was told long ago the this was getting the 'Ole one eye'..
Snarf sounds better, but if you insist...

In small town Texas back in the 60's we burned our trash in 55 gallon oil barrels. The city came by once a month and picked up the ashes. As a kid we used to toss those cans in on purpose and watch 'em go off. We always stood back though. I'm not saying it was smart but other than riding a bike down a dirt road there was not a lot to do out there.

Some time back, over a year ago, I was checking out my stuff at Safeway.  A guy wearing an eye patch walked past, and the little twinkie gal (maybe 16 years old or so) who was bagging groceries said something like, “That guy has a cool pirate patch.”  The checker lady, about my age (middle aged), stared at the twinkie and said, “Honey, that’s not a pirate patch.  He wears that because he’s only got one eye.”  The twinkie says, “Eeewwww, why would he do that?”
Simply astounding.

The Twink sounds like she could be a future presidential candidate.

Talking about gPink... and the end is near.  Somewhat apt based on his latest ramblings...

After a couple of margaritas, what isn't a bit funny to you?

A couple of the Urban Dictionary's definitions of 'Twink':

1) twink: An attractive, boyish-looking, young gay man. The stereotypical twink is 18-22, slender with little or no body hair, often blonde, dresses in club wear even at 10:00 AM, and is not particularly intelligent. A twink is the gay answer to the blonde bimbo cheerleader.

2) twink: In an MMORPG, a veteran player who makes a new character and gives a bunch of top-shelf equipment from their older, maxed-out characters to the new character.

I'm familiar with only the second definition, I'd never heard the first before...
