This morning's paper brings the sad news that Molly Ivins has died. This is one woman who knew how to have fun and tell everyone else about it. Whether skewering Texas politicians or the President--her favorite Texas pol to skewer--she was usually on target and a howl, to boot.
It takes guts to keep on keepin' on with inflammatory breast cancer, but Molly Ivins wasn't one to lie down and feel sorry for herself. Right up until the end, she was giving 'em hell and hollering for the rest of us to get off our sorry butts and do the same. What better memorial than to follow her advice?
Find your passion--Texas pols, education, global warming, people who don't use turn signals, developers--and do something about it. Thanks for the lessons, Molly, and for the laughs.
