Damn, Kathy, that is quite a tale about Rodney! Wonder how much is true.

That article by Weisel is the same one I sent Sunday. It is very good, and
the guy did his homework on the backstory. Blomberg was the married name of
the daughter. The daughter I met was a real sweetie, good to her dad.

I don't know if we can put the bisexual label on everyone who sleeps with
both men and women; for a gay or lesbian, sleeping with (and marrying) a
member of the opposite sex must have been the safest and most expedient
thing to do forty or fifty years ago. May still be.
