And so we lost Farrah Fawcett today, to cancer; she was 62. I know the picture everyone remembers, the swimsuit pinnup, but this is the one I remember; it shows a beautiful girl, but also a fun girl, a friendly girl, a girl with personality and a bit of fire. I had this very picture varnished onto the bottom of my own handmade wooden skateboard, circa 1974 (I would have been about 16). So be it. She will be missed... but I will always remember her like this. |
