Either DJ is slow to respond or too scared to do so, I will explain the "Smiley" reference as it applies to Mr. Marlow.
It was indeed around 0230 when DJ and I were observing the general condition of the party members, when I asked the question, "How do you know when so-and-so is hammered?"
We started with a member from PA who has locomotive history who always denies his state of abnormality. It was determined that his "tell" was the delay of his eyeballs coming around to look at you well after his head was facing you.
So I asked DJ how do you know when Billy is in the groove? He said, "He can't stop smiling." At that moment, "Smiley" was born.
It was determined that the "tell" of another esteemed member was that he becomes a close talker, with eyes wide open. And, as it turns out, he also loses all sense of time...
