[lbo-talk] Celebrity and false idols

[joanna]

According to my father, who knew her, Ana Pauker was a wonderful and 
very brave woman. Magda, well, was probably as interesting and 
entertaining as any king's mistress would be. Elena Ceausescu was kind 
of like the mad queen in Alice in Wonderland.

Me, I come to NYC once a year. I'll give you a buzz and we can have dinner.
I'm a lousy feminist.
