  2. you of all people know how i feel
    about Freddie Mercury. as much as
    you like Tom Waits, that's how i
    feel about Freddie Mercury - if not
    more so. in fact, i'm listening to
    him right now - a cd that was put
    together by Brian May called "lover
    of life, singer of songs"; got it at phonoluxe. it was put out after
    his death. however, i just can't
    picture borat playing him - i'd just see borat playing the fool as
    in his movies and such. they do look similar but just don't know if
    i could see sasha cohen playing
    freddie without seeing borat instead. anyway - that's my opinion. love - mom
