Honoured. I love this for many reasons - other than the terrific reading of Betjeman you see how she and Kenny loved each other, and he was every bit the actor she was. Maggie S was only really close to a few people, and they were actors she could go toe-to-toe with.

Two children were killed and seventeen people were injured in a shooting at Annunciation Catholic School. A Cracker Barrel logo change received far more scrutiny and attention than any fight against the epidemic of gun violence in this country. Our priorities remain idiotic.
