R.I.P. Bettie Page

I was all set to write a post last week about how surprised I was to find out that former pinup girl Bettie Page -- the same Bettie Page that inspired the movie The Notorious Bettie Page -- was still alive. But then I got busy with other things and I forgot to write it.

Unfortunately, Ms. Page was in the hospital at that time so it's just as well I didn't write that post. Especially since she has since died this past Thursday at the age of 85.

For what I've read of her biography, she seemed to be a good woman whose most recent life was not quite as happy as I would wish for someone so famous.

She will be missed.
