*quality <3 it

An object lesson in how you don't have to sing *all* the notes to have soul. I'm looking at you Carey, Aguilera, Beyoncé etc.....

Beyonce played her in Cadillac Records. She did a rendition of the song as well but I still think Etta did it better.

Her virus database has been updated.

Thank you for that.

Actually, no, he was a relatively young man. Early 30's maybe?

This was in 1976. The world was a much different place then.

My best friend and I got accountancy internships when we were sophomores in college -- these internships went to Seniors or maybe the occasional hot shot Junior. But we were women! They wanted to recruit us because we were so rare!

By the time I graduated two years later, women were 50% of the accounting students and being a woman carried no special advantage in terms of being hired.

There were few women doctors, few lawyers, no commercial pilots -- and few, if any, male nurses. (The gender limitations cut both ways, still do.)

There were poetesses and authoresses -- or "women poets" and "women authors". Now there are just poets and authors.

It has been a profound change in my lifetime. It is very pleasing.

My first job was at a medium sized CPA firm with 20 accountants. I was the only woman accountant on staff.
My first day there was a staff meeting. I got there early. As we were waiting for the meeting to start, the accountant next to me asked, "How does it feel to be a minority?'
I looked at him in puzzlement and I honestly thought this, "How does he know my father is from Oklahoma?"
I had to ask him, since clearly that was an insanely weird first reaction. "What do you mean? How am I a minority?"
He blustered, "Well, you're a woman."
I laughed. "I'm not in the minority, women are 51% of the population."
"Women aren't a special interest" -- I love that!

Was he born in 1880?
