In violation of DUmp rules, TomInTib is definitely back with a new sockpuppet. He's been running up his post count in DUmp backwaters, preparing for his return to General Discussion.
He'll get away with this sockpuppet ploy, since with the advent of DU3 Skimmer no longer cares what goes on in the DUmp. I haven't really looked for DollarBillHines much, but I'm sure he has threads and comments scattered all over the DUmp slums as he builds post count credibility.
This entertaining bouncy tale is from November, in the Politics forum, and is classic TiTtyboy.
He's a ladykiller, you know. There's just something about a destitute alcoholic they can't resist:

If the GOP has finally lost Susan, they will never catch up
Beginning back in the 80's, I had a years-long affair with a woman named Susan.
Susan was a dream come true - beautiful, smart and funny. We had like tastes in pretty much everything - music, wine, fast cars, cuisine, you name it. Susan was classic Fort Worth, Texas.
But she was a Republican, through and through.
Susan worshipped St Ronnie, forgave Iran-Contra, and even backed GHWB.
She listened to LimpBo and watched Faux (not when I was around, however).
The woman thought W was going to save the world, early on, but wavered at the end.
I moved on and had only spoken to her once in the past four years.
She called me last week from SFO, on her way to Yosemite. Asked if she could stop by, drink some wine and play some music.
So I said, "Sure".
Long story short, the night wore on and we were talking about our respective situations.
She told me she has been dating a Judge in Austin, and then she dropped The Bomb.
"I just found out that son-of-a-bitch has been accepting money from Tom DeLay and Bob Perry. I told him that he had a choice - give back the money or get out of my life."
She then went on about the Republican War on Women and the Middle Class. She was livid about voter suppression, the pathologically dishonest Romney campaign, and on and on. Ironically, she had few misgivings about the Judge's political affiliation but her problem was with his supporters who are helping to fund everything else she was pissed about.
She did, after all, put up with me for all those years.
Susan has money and she has a voice.
If the 'pubs have lost the Susans in their race to the bottom, the Party may never recover.

4. She's golden, alright
So is her hair, but I intentionally didn't put that in the OP so as note to inflame the Overly Sensitive.
I swear, the woman hasn't aged in 20-something years. She has some old pics of us in which I look like I could be my own son.

24. Like I said, beautiful inside and out.
And I seriously doubt your self-criticism, but it does reflect your genuine modesty, and that, too, is beautiful.
TiTtyboy records his encounters with women. They love it:

18. She was pretty drunk when she said it.
Susan plays it pretty close to the vest, and probably wouldn't have said it if she was sober.
She wouldn't have wanted to give me the pleasure. But she will probably say it to any 'pub friends she has
We'll talk about it more when she gets back from Yosemite.
The cool thing is that I have voice-activated recorders in my office and in our kitchen (where most of the truly creative conversations take place). I record everything. I'll probably just play it back for her, right out of the blue.

21. if she is not aware that you were recording her...
this is probably something that I would keep private... she might not perceive your recording of her in the same way that you might have intended...
She sounds like a keeper...
