Brock and Frenesi

[ckaratnytsky]

     Quoth Peter, feeling a little guilty--perhaps?--about his Zoydian 
     fantasies:
     
     >Is it just her baby blues and great legs? (I hope not.)
     
     A bona fide question (not merely a tweak):  What would be the problem, 
     if it didn't amount to anything more than that?  Au contraire, I'd be 
     worried if it did!
     
     Absent her layered mythopoetic significance (which is considerable), 
     Frenesi grows increasingly less complex as a human woman character--to 
     me, anyway.  Ideologically speaking, she's a cipher, a traitor, a 
     rootless and self-motivated hedonist who moors her vacillations through 
     political limbo with a continued fascination for totalitarian 
     salvation.  <insert broken record noise here>
     
     Think of Jane Fonda as we've come to know her over the years, pre- and 
     post-Ted.  Luscious body, but, damn, if she hasn't made you puke with 
     her politics, Peter, then I'm running!  As Steely sez, Hayden, WHAT 
     were you thinking?!
