FRANKLY, MY DEAR


This quote is so much better than the "Frankly", quote most know from GWTW. To me it's better than the kissing quote from Bull Durham. The one where Costner talks of what he likes, including the 7th inning stretch. But part of it may be Gable/Olivia far exceeding Costner/Sarandon.


I, lover of words, appreciate the wording. The emphasis on kissed and often by placing the conjunction and between. That totally sets up the second and by more emphasis on by one who knows how.


Of course everyone knows how to kiss. But some do it so much better.
Without getting specific at all, it got me thinking about the last part of the quote "who knows how". Now granted, I've had a lot of time between first kisses, junior high/high school/college kisses and the ones I have enjoyed most, but I'm always analyzing, reflecting, remembering.
My conclusion. Most of the ones I have kissed were pretty forgettable. That is, I can't remember how they kissed. Oh, a few. Some surprisingly as I reminisce were not very good. And what makes me a judge? Because I was the kissee.
Any more discussion is likely to get me in trouble. A question perhaps, such as "and just who were the memorable kissers"? My honest reply,"Just you, Hon."
