Ann Richards

random
Ann Richards, the former Democratic Governor of Texas died at the age of 73 yesterday. She was a progressive and outspoken Democrat known for her wit. Her 1988 Democratic National Convention Keynote Address can be found here. Two of her well-known quotes from this speech:

"Ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did. She just did it backwards and in high heels."

"Poor George. He can't help it. He was born with a silver foot in his mouth."

My knee is much improved. I happened to give in and put on heels today so I'll save the attempt at a run for tomorrow -- and wear flats.
