She turned 72 the S...She was one of those people. <br /><br />She turned 72 the Sunday before she died, which means she was 28 back in '66. 28 years old and she's serving up chicken and greens to Martin Luther King while he plans tomorrow's rally. No doubt she knew she was witnessing something huge but still....28 years old? Man, what a life she lead.<br /><br />I'm open minded about whose biscuits are the second greatest on the planet.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04253196269498737011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33360632.post-42636276682814910162010-06-15T15:38:19.321-05:002010-06-15T15:38:19.321-05:00Maybe it's simply this: That no matter one'...Maybe it's simply this: That no matter one's age, color, creed, era, circumstance or persuasion, there are just some people who can't help but know what the right thing to do is, and then they simply go ahead and do it, no matter the consequences.
