Muscatine

No I got it --basically,

You seem a very astute comic and like many others quite bright, and well I didn't actually know who you meant it for.  Sorry if I wasn't clearly happier but sensitivities are high these days. I don't know her depth perhaps, but Mallory seems to say a lot with much less than I do. Hell some times i don't even know what we do this for, boredom I guess.

Why do you refer to Mallory as "her"?

....inane.....?  Somebody left an "s" out.

Am I that naive,

In all my life I have never heard of a man named Mallory. Brother should be a man right? I hope. But there were those two carpenters on Green Acres.
