Gus, of course, represents those who otherwise would have no voice: the capybara farmer. This is a neglected but important group of workers who provide the world with capybara meat and pelts. A2K is perhaps the only forum that fully addresses the issues which concern all capybara farmers. I consider it my privilege to know Gus.
Gus is a gift from above.
Don't look a gift-gus in the mouth.

Actually Gus is the Sheik of Shiitaki
Well, whoever he is, I sure do appreciate all the needed laughs he's given me over the years.
I love Gus, whoever the hell he is.

Gus is a descendant of the presocratic Greek philosopher of flux: Hairyclitoris.
So sorry, that is Heraclitus.
Wake me up if you ever all work this out.
We'll just send Gus over to wake you ;-)
I recall the time I had a possum (gus calls 'em o'possums) trapped beneath my mobile home all night. I called on gus for backup, because the monster had taken to playing dead, just waiting on me to drop all caution and get too close to those powerful jaws. Gus crept in and threw a noose about its snout and quickly trussed up the beast like as if it were a gator (gus calls 'em alligators). Together we hauled our little friend to Burrows Park and sent it scuttling through the brush to its freedom. Then I took gus on the town to show my appreciation. I bought him two Lone Star beers and gave him four dollars to stuff in the dancing girls' g strings. He started sounding like Foster Brooks, so I did my Dean Martin for him to keep the poor guy from feeling uncomfortable. He kept calling Jerry Lewis "that dirty little ernie." After that, he drove off crookedly down the highway for home. I think he got sidetracked on that journey and spent some weeks in jail. I am not at liberty to detail the transgression got him put there.
Gustavratzenhofer is a loose nut behind the wheel, mind you if he was tight, it would not be any better!
Edgar, knowing of Gus' philosophical heritage, I once asked him who was his favorite greek philosopher. He is SO erudite. Without hesitation he named the ancient sage Acidophilous.

I once asked him his favorite color. He said: "The colors. The colors."
