Today beloved Molly Ivins is 64 years old. Probably older than that but that is all I have to work with right now. I sure wish she was still hanging around and blessing us with her brilliance but she did plant enough seeds that we can try to imagine in our own minds and in our own ways. I particularly loved her description of Phil Gramm as a thumb with a face.

You can run your own searches on YouTube or Google and find a lot of great Molly memories so I will just try to insert this remembrance here.

Happy Birthday, Ms. Ivins!

I’ll be hoisting a couple of beverages with you today and shaking my head and rolling my eyes and hoping for the best.
