Ah! Thank you. Never knew that.

But was it? My recall is there was some possible shadiness about it through a friend she had who whispered some non-public info to her. Two personal acquaintances of mine who also know her said that was the case. I don't know.

Agree entirely. Then there is also the element of the system (Deep State if we must) that is still anti-woman. 'Feminism' is full of a lot of stupid stuff. But also considerable true observation of real shit. Martha was convicted of a (pretty questionable) $60k insider trade, when men in or around the market were getting away with millions. What I love most is she showed the biggest balls in the room by saying, 'Look, instead of an endless appeal, I'll just go into the clink and serve my really rather short time, so I can get back to business again.' IWO: Fuck You.

I think that was the place. Wherever, such a nice memory of the several of us hanging together.

The far and away largest & most observant mind I have ever known.

Now HE is credibly from his own very long display of Himself a clear ass. In any & every way. The above words have no irony in them at all. He is an ultimate turdball.

Don’t be snarky. I am queer. I like sleeping with women too, as well as men. And everything in between. ’Just try not to mate too far outside your own species’ as the cartoon says.

Thinnin’ on it, yes! Funniest, most relaxed & not over-rushed, etc on his own shows. The most himself.

P.S. I just don’t think he documented this thing he is pushing enough, and published evidence thereof that self-referentially showed its point.

I thought some of the movies were pretty good... ’Hail, Freedonia!’

And of course...

Yeah, that is truth. That internal fire is what propels some to pursue and excel in such an in many ways thankless profession. But the eventual attractions to use one’s constructed venue to exercise personal pathologies is ever-present. Thus for instance this code of ethics drawn up by members of the profession itself: https://www.spj.org/ethicscode.asp

One could add in like admiration that Brooke Shields from ‘Pretty Baby’ on was similarly interested in going beyond the envelope of that time, and did it well and with considerable intelligence.

Separate entirely from the possibility Ronan may be a self-promoting ass.

Did we not once have a very nice outdoor brunch there eons ago, at your recommendation?

Yes, my love. I do not dismiss the many women, all hurt and harmed. Very much so; and absolutely must be given justice. Known several thus oneself.

This is excellent. He is intelligent, but has fallen prey unconsciously to several current mental pathologies in himself, and abroad inns the world. Only too clear. Oneself would not say that, and still with some trepidation, except after considerable (expensive! ) years on the shrink’s couch.

P.S. To requote from a Harold Bloom post somewhere in the Organ thread, ‘There are a billion Muslims on the planet now. There are at least a billion Christians. There are barely ten million self-professed Jews. If Yahweh exists, either He has been doing a very bad job, or something else has gone terribly wrong.’ Timely words for these troublous times. https://radioopensource.org/harold-bloom-jesus-and-yahweh/

In line with your opening thought, Sherman was among the first generation of Jewish humorists (a comic songwriter; the rest were short-story or essay writers, mostly for The New Yorker magazine) who found humor in their Jewish cultural backgrounds, and gloried in it, in the funniest ways. And the most, as we say these days, ‘self-affirming.’
