    Ted would hated the trolly vein BS UA-cam, but, he would've loved the instructional/constructive/exploration UA-cam. Imagine him talk hitting, fishing, piloting, everything. I think if he was here today he'd be even more beloved. He lived in a time where if you werent friendly to the media, they'd whitewash your life, basically. Not that it doesn't happen today, its just that he'd have a platform to explain himself. I think his wisdom should've been explored more and wouldve helped more people.

    I heard once on an interview show, someone that had work with May West, that her walk was more a "shuffle on stilts." She would have her figure sewn into her costumes, placing her thumb on the seam she would know exactly how the light was hitting her.

I can only imagine the things he went thru with his mother being gone all the time just to make a living to keep him. But he understood why and it hurt him to know that about Pearl but back then, if you think it's cut throat now.. Whew honey, you didn't want to be living in those days in the entertainment world. The things we would do to each other to make it, especially if we thought we were pretty. It was nasty work.

    5:00 Ironically, PBS bleeped out Ginsberg's language. Why ironic? Because in the full interview, the first half hour was Ginsberg making the case that language should not be censored. By the way the phrase Ginsberg used was "f@ggot individualist" (referring to himself). And yes, I had to self-censor with the @-mark because otherwise my comment would likely be deleted. Such is the ret@rded world we live in.
