      There’s been a lot of television produced over the years and people on the internet are prone to hyperbole, however, this might be the most truthful statement ever uttered in the history of RUclips comments.

    I have always enjoyed the story AND adventure that this Napkin took. To me it was essentially "A Hot Potato Of Love" being tossed about between Jed and Leo! Many others saw this miniature cloth blanket under glass from time to time, but the true meaning of this Wooden Frame will forever be Tattooed on the Heart of a President and his Faithful Chief Of Staff.

      @@shalashaska9946 You didn't ask. You insulted the channel owner and said they should run it better. Maybe if you _did_ ask, politely - assuming you even know how to do so - you might get your request granted. Complaining about not getting enough, or the "right," free stuff just makes you look like a egocentric jerk.
