What a character... more "out there" than Zappa himself. [though not nearly as musically sophisticated]

It's bad enough that people kill themselves with irresponsible behavior like texting while driving. What bothers me even more are the people killed or maimed for life by those engaging in such irresponsible behavior. I lost count of the drivers I see using laptops, shaving, reading or doing who knows what else behind the wheel other than paying attention to their driving. Just unbelievable.

Geraldine Doyle, the inspiration for the WWII-era "We Can Do It" poster and often mistaken for "Rosie the Riveter". (The actual Rosie the Riveter, Rosalind P. Walter, died some time ago.)

Subscription (paid) or Registration (free)? The latter works fine for me.
