Let him off the hook


Others needless to say have done really bad and then some.

It depends if more comes out about him.

It does bug me that in his apology he closes with, "It is not reflective of who I am."

Well....who was it, then? Is what Hoffman did reflective of...John Jacob Jingleheimer Smith, instead? Is he implying he was going through a major nervous breakdown at the time, and that was a completely different personality? It's a cop out.

I don't understand that statement. We ARE what we DO...not what our dreamy ideals are.

He's 80 years old.

And did you know that pervy, inappropriate behavior can be a symptom of early-stage dementia? Maybe it's just time for him to retire and just be 80.
