    I never considered frankness with being synonymous with obnoxious.

    To quote a long ago storyline in L’il Abner, “Frankly, I’m with Frank”. The story had Abner learning the line without knowing what it meant. Frank was a mob boss. Put the fear into anyone he said it to.

    The ironic think about frank people is they seldom like others telling them what obnoxious anal cavities they are.

    It comes as no surprise that Rat’s “friend” would not only be frank but also be an obnoxious jerk. Rat wouldn’t have it any other way.

    Lloyd Wright was Frank’s son. Also a famous architect.

    I was in the vicinity of Taliesin last summer but I drove right past it and did House on the Rock instead. Apparently the architect of House on the Rock was the son of another architect whom Wright once publicly humiliated, and he sought to avenge his father’s honor by upstaging Wright. At least that’s what I got from the introductory part of the tour, which I blew through as quickly as possible so I could see the more impressive exhibits farther in without having to worry about time.

    Generally I’ve known frank statements that were also critical. Wouldn’t it be better to be frank by saying how well you feel about your friends

    Lloyd, m’man, you have not yet encountered Pig. Or the crocs. Once you do, I suspect that you will re-evaluate Goat.
