ooooooo

Lighten up, Frances. 


Frances is a girl's name isn't it.  So, is Duane really a girl [not woman]
with penis envy perhaps?



Nope. In the 1950s and in Irish neighborhoods, guys were still named
Frances as the long or formal form of Frank and Frank was considered as
a dimunitive form of Frances, which was spelled with an e to
disambiguate it from the girl's name Francis.

I think you've got it wrong Ed. Frances is traditionally the feminine form and Francis the masculine, e.g.

Frances Farmer
Francis the Talking Mule

Anyway, Frances Farmer ended up in a padded cell and it looks like the Sarge may someday be residing in one too.
