Italian American, 1925-1989. She flounces in wearing five pounds of gertrude pollen. She is a moose. She receives a fifty dollar bill inscribed and mottled by Benjamin Peret.

"Verna reared up. We had never seen that." Stimes Addisson to Mazzistow Carrington, relating a story about how Cable advanced upon William Flintrock one night, using an Okinawan "crane" posture, before laying him a blow which sent him sprawling onto a table heaped with German pancakes.

Cable was a broad-hipped, gentle soul, as at ease with the quill as she was with a block of marble, she remained an active participant in AA activities until her untimely death at 64 in an odd farming accident. She loved the Incidentalist Dead Flesh Bonanza, often pulling in the blue ribbon both for her chili and her incendiary calls for a blimp revolution.

She beat Balthazar Buehb arm wrestling and once had sex with three men in one night. She's aces at crossword puzzles and has visited 32 countries, including Kyrgistan.
