Nice piece: http://www.forbes.com/2009/06/26/farrah-fawcett-michael-jackson-poster-opinions-columnists-tunku-varadarajan.html. I read where her funeral is Tuesday in a Los Angeles cathedral. Fortunately, it won't be the freak show that will be the Jackson service.
Oh, like the author, I had the Farrah poster proudly displayed at 149 Kokernot Hall in a galaxy far away and long ago. It spoke to me pretty much the same way it did for him.
RIP, FF.

Great article. Somewhat notable that the author uses the word "ululation" twice. From Wiki:
An ululation (aka ololuge or ololygmos) is a long, wavering, high-pitched sound resembling the howl of a dog or wolf with a trilling quality. It is exclusive to women[1], and is produced by emitting a high pitched loud voice accompanied with a rapid movement of the tongue and the uvula[1]. Usually when ululating women would place the right hand horizontally over the upper lip[1]. The term ululation is an onomatopoeic word derived from Latin. It is produced by moving the tongue, rapidly, from left to right repetitively in the mouth while producing a sharp sound.
Ululation is the piercing noise thing that Arab women do to celebrate a conquest by their men, such as a successful goat rape, stoning to death of a young woman, or beheading of a helpless hostage.
