My only firm opinion of the woman is she looked like a cross between Golda Meir and a Rankin-Bass puppet.

even though i didn't always agree with her she paved quite a way in my book.

also this week, wendy wasserstein died. talented, original and apparently a very nice person. will miss her talent and insights. this one really stings because she wasn't that much older than me.

Whoa. Today was Friedan's birthday, too. Wonder if the mortician had to scrape dried bits of frosting out of her eyebrows.

yeah Frank Rich very eloquently eulogized Wasserstein on Imus the other morning.

Pardon my naivite, but what did she die from? It sounded like it was something degenerative (MS maybe) by the way he was talking but I wasnt sure.
