  • Tim's solution to Erica Kirk's problems: be less famous, it's allowed legally.
  • A-listers go down the tubes because they don't know when to stop shoving themselves down people's throats.
  • Tim feels bad for Kirk but doesn't understand why she continues to be everywhere.
  • His advice: slow it down, take a minute, take a breather—not stop, just slow down.
  • Tim has never personally seen anyone grieve the way Kirk is grieving, and he finds it unusual.
  • This strain of grief is new to Tim and he's adjusting to it like everyone else.
  • If this is what she needs to do, that's fine, but it feels like bad taste to him.
  • Free advice: take some time off, then return with whatever you want—a book, tour, or one-woman show.
  • Tim would pop back up around Christmas, taking the summer and fall off.
  • You need to go away to come back; people will be excited when you return after giving it time.
