Right as rain after a lousy drought. Have liked Tiedrich from first reading him.
Aside: All that "toxic" there reminded me of Maher who said one of the reasons he has retired from live performance is because he feels in danger of being shot, in his own words, "by both sides .. https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/comedy/news/bill-maher-stand-up-comedy-b2867604.html ." His arrogance no doubt has made him enemies, still there are many more involved than he is who haven't quit operating in public. And his inclusion of that as one of his reasons for quitting that field to me confirms the way i became to feel about him. Too full of himself for his own good.
