Mama Gin is getting along famously in SF as per the photograph below - a photograph that reminds me of one of PG's great moments in domestic comedy.
One day I came home from work to find George in a state of particularly high agitation. I asked him what was wrong. His reply:
"What's wrong? What do you mean 'what's wrong?'" he said, pointing to Mama Gin who was as usual hovering outside, trying to peer in our window. "How am I supposed to feel with Miss Elphaba spying on me all day?"
The characterization was so dead on that I probably howled for thirty minutes.
For those of you who are not fans of "Wicked," Elphaba is the main character who later became known as the Wicked Witch of the West in the Oz books.

Be careful about what you say Coaster, one flying monkey can do the same damage as a flock of incontinent pigeons.
I'm glad you explained that, because I've never seen "Wicked," so I would've been force to comment "hahahahaha" as if I understood what you meant.
It sure it ain't easy being green, or Poor George for that matter.
We have a black President now!!!! It's all beyond fantastic!!!
I hope you'll pardon me for saying so, but that may be the gayest thing George has ever said.
I miss MG:)
