3. Well silly fuckin' me!
I guess I should have thought about that!

I went down my memory list:

Roe v. Wade - nope
19th Amendment - nope
Women allowed on juries - nope

But damned if I thought about the nutso chick who shot Andy Warhol. I must be slippin.

;-)

7. Well, what a coincidence
I just rented it and saw it a second time tonight. Lili Taylor was just great. I started a Lili Taylor fan check-in thread for fellow enthusiasts.

2. I believe it is International Women's day
Incidentally, it was demonstrations on IWD that got out of hand and toppled the Czar in 1917
