You know, when Bones started tonight

I wouldnt know, dammit!! Sometime in the middle of the night, the power went out/came back on. I woke up when my printer turned on, said whatever, turned over. I have now discovered that it means that the digital cable box turns off. So, I come home to find 48 minutes of black screen instead of Bones. ARGH.

Aw, Molly Ivins. She'd been sick for a while, but she was a fucking firecracker up to the end. I once drank from a whiskey bottle at a party after her and another time told her that she was my fucking hero, to which she said only, "Aim higher." She told a story at another party about lefty ACLU members in the early 70s torn between their belief that the KKK had a right to march on the Capital and their belief that the KKK was, well, the KKK. So they officially supported the KKK's petition to the city of Austin and lined Congress Avenue to await the Klan. When the boys in white showed up, according to Molly, all the people on both sides of Congress turned around and mooned them, all 12 blocks up to the Capital steps. God bless 'em, and god bless her for trying to keep these fucking crazy-ass Texans straight for all these years.

It's understandable. I was surprised how taken aback I was that I wasn't gonna get more of her words, considering I only spottily read her columns. Hearing her voice occasionally on my radio was a riot. Texas lost a special character.

I've bought more iTunes! I feel like I'm joining the 21st century!

I'd like to think she and Ann Richards are tearin' it up.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Which one? "This is my poodle, Cocksucker." "This is my husky, Motherfucker." "This is my German Shepard, Fuckyou."

It was, I believe, a retriever mutt type thing named "Shit"

Terribly sad.

Here she is on Ann Richards: [link]

I'm looking for some of her older columns. She had a few on Clayton Williams that were devastastingly funny.
