I like the Mrs. character you built Frank, She stands by her man, yet has a side to her that is most wishful and she seems strong and will not go down without a fight.
Thank you, vesta dear, madam.
I think I've been eminently fair in my portrayal of Mrs. Alfred Packer; after all, it's a self-portrait of herself she painted with her own hand, using words rather than paint.
My descriptions of the hippywife primitive come not from inside my head, but from her thousands of comments on Skins's island, augmented by all the good stuff the late immortal Tangerine LaBamba told me about her.
I have no idea if Mrs. Alfred Packer enjoys my descriptions of her or not, but if she doesn't, it's her own fault, because it's an image of herself she herself created, without the help of anyone else.
I cannot wait to see the next installment of the saga. What you are going to do with her and Wild Bill, sort of like the penny dreadfuls of the 1920s, will the fair maiden tied to the railroad tracks be rescued by Dudley Dooright ????
"Mrs. Alfred Packer does Labor Day" will come out sometime around.....Labor Day, September 5.
Leading up to that, inbetweentimes, there'll be a short short short short episode in which Mrs. Alfred Packer and Wild Bill discuss which of the two men who'd been sitting in the booth of the restaurant next to them, is franksolich.
And given that they're primitives, wearing blinders, narrowing their minds, thinking in superficial appearances and stereotypes, looking at only the surface of the water rather than what's underneath, jumping to conclusions before all the facts are in, their perceptions distorted by bigotry and hatred and paranoia, their final determination of which one is franksolich shouldn't be any surprise to anybody in the DUmpster.
