      he has talked about that girl before and another he dated many years ago. He doesn't like to mention names. When Adrianna talked about the "science gal" Cara Santa Maria, he got "I'm not going there". They were cute, she was so smart, smartest of the models etc he dates. They loved animals and both didn't believe in God. But he wasn't ready for marriage.

    I love Sandra Bernhard. She is so honest and has her own perspective. She does not join conformity as most phonies do. Under pressure if she does cave in, she knows that she compromised her values because she was caught between a rock and a hard place. She usually walks away from the masses of asses even if they are powerful. I'm so glad that she talked about her father and family. I did not feel so alone trying keep family together but too often it is impossible. I too was born in 1955.

      Happens a lot on Cub Radom; Bill's such a raging narcissist, I always end up learning more about him. He's pedantic, he's pompous, and though I wouldn't use the term self-deprecating-he's always kidding when he says anything negative about himself, he does seem to be aware of the fact. He's mentioned several times how he thinks he'd be perfect for the role of Henry Higgins in My Fair Lady...and he's probably right.

Really admire how she continues to be amazingly interesting, funny, witty and cosmopolitan through the decades! Interesting to find out from this video that Bill is Irish and Jewish; that Bill was an au pair for a rich NYC couple’s 3 kids; that Sandra’s dad is 100 years old and was beastly towards her, her mom and 2 brothers when they were kids (and is still estranged from them), and that Sandra tried to patch things up with him (but to no avail)…

      I like that went deep and asked probing personal questions. I didn't like her self serving proclamation at the beginning to not want to get into the encroachment against the freedom of artistic expression.

    I’ll never stop being funny and loving to laugh my ass off. Laughing relieves stress and heals the body. Ya gotta laugh in this day and age.
    I’m 70 and love comedy. So glad I grew up in the era that I did. And glad I’m on this side of my life and not just starting out.
    You’re right about “Giant”. First time I watched it I was younger and thought it was good. Saw it recently and thought it was so long and boring. Sandra is right about the make-up. Terrible!

      I've also read that laughter is great for bonding. It was an article on laughter, and it said that there are many times when we laugh, not because something is funny, but because it's a spontaneous bonding gesture with the person(s) with whom we are talking. "Laughter is a powerful tool for strengthening social bonds. It may have evolved to facilitate bonding across large groups of people1. Laughter releases chemicals that help build social bonds, and triggers the release of endorphins in brain regions responsible for arousal and emotion. When we laugh with one another, a positive bond is created, which acts as a strong buffer against stress, disagreements, and disappointment." (Psychology Today.) Others may already know this, but it's not something I really thought about till I saw this article. It is, however, something I have always felt...
