Very funny!! And Jamie didn’t even demonstrate the poo fling in the face treatment. Still laughing. Well done Jamie and J.B.!
BRILLIANT, JB! I hope this is only the first in a series.
bravo Jaimers. point taken or, more to the point, hurled.
Jamie has a very deft hand at dialogue–quite sublime, with philosophical overtones. You can tell she gave this answer in particlar a LOT of thought.
One tends to wonder what her dating advice will be.
This is priceless- reminds me of two illustrations with Hoot swinging from the chandelier in A Chimpanzee Tale. If any chimp can illustrate why chimps don’t make great pets, it is Jamie!
I think Jamie is having fun when she does that throwing of stuff and making noise. So happy you are there to give her the freedom to do it!
Well said Jamie! Looking forward to your next question and answer video?
