COLUMNIST MOLLY IVINS HOSPITALIZED WITH CANCER

Post by Zlatko Waterman » January 27th, 2007, 4:11 pm

Molly Ivins, one of my favorite journalists and perhaps one of yours ( eh, LRod?) has been suffering with cancer since her first diagnosis in 1999.
She is now described as "gravely ill" and has been hospitalized.

I'm so sorry to hear about this
a week doesn't go by that I don't read her columns
she is a constant inspiration to me

she is a Texas treasure
one of a hard-boiled breed
of women journalists that can spit tobacco
as far as any man
"These words don't make me a poet, these Eyes make me a poet."
