She is a refreshing face in this day of plastic this, Botox that, tummy tuck this and cap that. A real woman, not some made for Only Fans diva.

I love her too. I was crushed by the ending - she was the best character. BUT, I have to disagree with you. I don't think you watched it, Frank. The sketch wasn't about her teeth. It was a parody of the series, with a 3 second shot of an exaggeration of her look, accent and character. I found it funny. I thought she would too, and am sad if she was offended. SNL is all about parody and making fun of everything! Have you seen their representation of Trump? Of Giuliani and *his* teeth?

Still love listening to you.

I love Aimee Lou Wood. You are so right! She is an amazing actor while, at the same time, being real, being who she is and not pretending to be something else.

The Lotus flower symbolizes purity and Mr. White playing his role as a “white flower” could be misconstrued as a man seeking after a fantasy unable to be reached because of the chasm of impurities he participates in. He is far from purity as an earthling.

Marriage, children, divorce, remarriage to an individual of the same sex in whom cannot produce offspring?

I am having a hard time putting those pieces of Humpty Dumpty back together again.

At what point in your life as a human would it be possible to turn the clock back and be reborn by two men or two women?

In fact, let’s just turn the clock back and reboot this fucked up notion that any of us would be able to even speak had our great grandparents, grandparents, parents and so forth engaged in any of this behavior to try and procreate.

I really enjoy your tenacity and auspicious commentaries regarding our illiterate political leaders, but this is a bit too much and too far to the cold side that we must get into the flow of forward motion and refrain from the ping pong, back and forth retarding of the minds and thoughts of our young people frozen in time because of the elders not willing to cut off the cancer, expose the weakness and expel the dross. Who knows, maybe we might begin to see more light and less shadow.

Thank you Frank but maybe read a few more lines of your fathers book “escape from reason” of which entitlement was born from perversion not be design. One of the best books written in modernity but underrated by religious and immature people that entertain the idea that nature is above nurture, flesh above spirit.
