... And She Did It In High Heels

Just had to give a sad shout-out at the passing of former Texas Governor Ann Richards, who died last night at 73 of cancer.

As with any politician, I never 100% agreed with her politics, but she was still a heroine.

Smart
Ambitious
Sassy
A true Texas woman all the way with her big hair and unmistakable drawl

Ann is an icon who showed us that a Woman can play in the Boy's Club and win, with bigger balls than most of the men in the room. As she often said: "Ginger Rogers did everything Fred Astaire did. She just did it backwards and in high heels."

Yes, she did ... and so did you, Ann ... at home, in government, on a Harley and in high heels.
