Merman wants to go out in the pouring rain to put a snake in the gutter to clean it out. He said it's clogged with leaves and sticks. The trouble is, he can't find the damm snake. I'm feeling very uncharitable. I mean, think of it. You use a snake to clean out toilets that are clogged!!! How could he have lost the snake? It's not exactly an item you could drop just anywhere. "Oh pardon me, dear, but you've left the snake on the couch. Could you put it away, please?" 




...what is the connection between MJF and RL? I read once that MJF deliberately does not take his meds to control his Parkinson's when he is interviewed about the disease. Sounds brutal, I know, but that's what I read!
