Hi, I'm 44 now, but *still* remember KaTe's rehersal for SNL. She of course, did 2 shows, 1 for blocking and audience reactions, etc and 1 for air. All SNL shows do that, but my uncle worked for the studio and got me in 2 hours early and I was there for the rehersals of THP and TMwCiHE. They needed a few people to be her "audience", for the ambience, I guess. I was put in the middle of these 8 or 9 other people and although she probably did it to all of us, I felt at the time that when she looked at me and held eye-contact for 3 or 4 (forever)seconds before going back to the camera, it was for me alone. She later came over and thanked us for helping her "feel the place". I got to shake her hand and even that of Mr Gaffa, her personal assistant. I'm afraid I didn't realize that she was a true Goddess and I ogled her in that body-stocking as though she was just a beautiful young woman with a beautifully different voice. I really repent and am sorrowful that I pinched her butt when she passed. The fact that she looked at me and came back and smeared my cheek with her listick and whispered in my ear,"Don't you *ever* do that again" and then **Winked** at me instead of getting mad should have clued me at that time of her divinity. KrW Commit random acts of kindness, and senseless acts of beauty!
