And make sure that the footman pronounces the wine
"clar-et" with first syllable accented and second syllable
pronounced "et," not "ay." The term is even EEC-protected
now.

I most certainly DO think he was a bottle baby, otherwise he wouldn't
be so hyper focused on those body parts.

I once heard a journalist on the radio who fancied herself as a wine expert
pronounce it "claray". Needless to say, I took no notice of her after that.

Well that's another angle, I would have thought he got so much milk he
could never quit it...

Heh. We have polar opposite theories, but my main one is that he's
losing his grip on reality and how to act in mixed company. His
online behavior isn't cute and wouldn't be condoned by men half his
age (unless they were misogynists). He comes across like he listens
to Howard Stern, someone who wouldn't be called a shock jock if his
public persona was considered normal behavior.

If that's the way he is offline, I pity his family and friends (if
there are any left) - but it would support my theory that he's
slipping into dementia rather than amping up a childlike attention
getting behavior online. You know who has that one perfected, so
compare and contrast.

Oh that's a most perceptive view, I see that too.
