Hold onto your seats America. very shortly a President who serially cheats on women , stiffs creditors, shafts friends, besmirches heroes, separates families, denigrates justice, mocks, belittles and savages as part of his daily routine and cheats at golf, is about to unify us.
God Bless Penny Marshall's extraordinary soul.
Beyond doubt she was able to excel at anything she put her world class mind & heart to and, lucky us, she picked comedy and films which celebrated humans. To many of us lost ones she was, at the time, the world's greatest den mother.
