he and Gail had an interesting "arrangement", that's for sure. at some point in time
one of his groupies was living at their house. clearly Gail was open to many things.

I'd like to have seen a world where Frank might have become the US ambassador to the EU, having been sponsored by ex-Czech president Vaclav Havel. Unfortunately, James Baker and the then nascent neocons had other plans.
I remember reading an interview with Frank in 'Spin' magazine around '91 where he
said he was looking into the feasiblity of running for president. unfortunately, he was
diagnosed with cancer soon after. I still suspect the CIA put something in his coffee!
