Congratulations, Andrew! And even Daniel has begun contributing to your heritage downline .
WoW. It sounds like you have a beautiful family in place and developing further.

Dear Andrew: Congratulations!! Bestowment of the title 'grandfather' is worth a thousand knighthoods. It is what we are sent here to collect. As Leonard said: "There is one thing in this life more valuable than gold, sex or religion - and that is family."

Sometimes I wonder if he has known love of a partner, not just "love of c**t" as he called it in Beautiful Losers, but also love of that person's personality; genuine love - as opposed to simple lust. Not just physical desire, but the deepest fondness and affection that can be transmitted from one heart to another within a monogamous relationship. Because not everybody is equipped to experience such an abandonment of self. For even though love can favour one with an exciting and emotional state of ecstasy, a potentially humiliating predicament may also await he who falls beneath the mercy of its whip. Romeo loved Juliet with every fibre in his body, but it ended in tragedy - and Heathcliffe's love for Cathy illustrates its wild and destructive power. Casanova once said: "Le marriage c'est le tombeau de l'amour," (marriage is the tomb of love) - and I am wondering if that gentleman could have been reincarnated in Leonard. And if so, why? What makes a man view the female form merely as an object made for his pleasure? Are you like this, Andrew? Because I cannot get out of my memory that salacious verse you sat and composed a while back. More than a statement, that poem was a declaration of how you condone physical rather than mental attraction, an unfortunate behavioural peculiarity you apparently share with Leonard. Well, you each both have a grandson now, so there is at least some positive common ground as well. My mother instilled into me a healthy set of standard morals conducive to living in a wholesome society, and I grew up with a healthy attitude towards the fairer sex - I was able to fall in love. Parental failure, mismanaged childhood - who knows what lies at the bottom of a lecher's uncontrollable libido? I bet you and Leonard never had your fingers slapped when unable to resist picking out sweets from a display of confectionary.

I think we may have a clip of Leonard "picking out sweets from a display of confectionary." And sure enough, NOT getting his hand slapped.

In the second clip, I think that's Leonard's hand grabbing an hors d'oevre at about 0:50.

With one hand on the hexagram and one hand on the girl
I balance on a wishing well that all men call the world.

[lizzytysh]

one hand on the girl?
I was thinking one hand on the wheel.

[beokii]

one hand on the girl?
I was thinking one hand on the wheel.

O lady with your legs so fine O stranger at your wheel,
You are locked into your suffering and your pleasures are the seal.

[lizzytysh]

okay, beokii

and it appears you're right, esther... it does look like Leonard's hand and kind of movement, that sort of careful hesitancy as he takes it, and if anyone were going to get footage of someone taking a 'confectionary,' would it not be of Leonard ?
