she had nothing to bare, Jay!

no, no, and no.  no one get on a flaming war about
Audrey Hepburn, please!  (though that could prove
interesting.)  I would certainly top her on my list of
amaisingly gorgeous women, followed by Cindy Jo Steb
and Corrine Helen Mahannah...

thought a similiarly slender friend said of Audrey:
"she didn't need anything else.  she made everyone
envy her, despite that she was as flat as an iron!"

well...

(lynzi had her coffee...)

well said.  well said.


this is another interesting aspect of Flannery.
she's a Christian woman.

Steve Taylor quotes her in the liner notes of "Now the
Truth Can Be Told."  Ms. O' Connor is probed of how
she, as a writer of her caliber, could believe
something as common and unfashionable as Christianity.

She reacts to the criticism that Christianity's
primary function is a crutch by saying that they don't
understand the cost in following Christ and that it is
"Harder to Believe than Not To."

this makes it very provoking--her faith and stance,
writing what she does.  it can make you really
consider what she says, why she does.

can you tell I want to admire and emulate this woman,
the day I find my guts?
