5 tell me a story:
I was about to leave a snarky comment about you being another Heroes evangelist...but then I looked at Molly's obit. I enjoyed reading her columns in syndication and was not aware that she had died. I agree that she is heroic...and that it is tragic that her life was cut short by cancer.
I didn't know Molly, but her death must be a big loss. I'll light a candle for her tonight.
My TT is about music preferences.
i like heroes...yeah those are exactly the list to be one good hero!

I'm ashamed to say I've been completely out of the news loop this week - thanks for letting us know about Molly Ivins - such a brave and inspirational and definition-of-integrity person! I enjoyed her writings so much. Great TT and great tribute to a wonderful soul. Thank you.
I'm so sorry about your hero! They are such an important part of our lives. Best!
