Something to admire

I admire and appreciate a great sense of humor...and Elizabeth Taylor seems to have had one of those.

I never would have thought so; I always figured she was one of those stuffy, uppity, full-of-herself people of film. The sort who thought acting with certain people was beneath her, and she was far superior in her acting skills than she actually was, but it turns out she at least had a sense of humor to go with those acting chops. Example:

Her funeral began fifteen minutes late.

As it turned out, one of her last requests was to be fashionably late for her own funeral...so she ordered the funeral to begin fifteen minutes behind schedule - just because!

Moxie! Brilliant! Cheers, Miss Taylor. Rest in peace.
