A very important thread. When I was probably no more than 10, I saw this picture of the woman known as Harlow in the Philly Inquirer. A little babygay, I was shocked that such a glamour queen could live in my hometown and even more shocked to see her described as "a former man."

Kept it going this morning with a few of Steely Dan's greatest hits. Peg: So much going on she wasn't sure whether to laugh or cry. Ultimately swayed by the power of MMcD Hey Nineteen: Did not like this one at all. Too sharp and syncopated maybe? Dirty Work: This one soothed her. PTA was right!
