She Did It The Hard Way

Just a note to remind folks that in order to receive a Great Gals Calendar 2008 before Christmas and New Years, you must order it by Friday, December 14! You can order it here.

Exciting facts I've learned from making this calendar for 6 years:

Bette Davis' gravestone says "She did it the hard way," while Dorothy Parker's says "Pardon my dust." I also learned that Dorothy Parker left everything to Martin Luther King, Jr. And in the realm of gravestones, writer Alice Walker is responsible not only for getting Zora Neale Hurston's books back in print, but for placing a proper gravestone on the late writer's unmarked grave.

Oh, so exciting! Don't you want to know MORE? Sure you do!
