About ten years ago, I was at a friends book signing party and while standing next to the literary star signing my book, I looked across his party and whispered, That woman looks like Lauren Bacall. To which he responded, That IS Lauren Bacall. Want to meet her? As I stuttered in indecision, I was introduced to Betty and promptly lost my ability to communicate in English or any other known language. She gave me a sweet, knowing smile that told me I was definitely NOT the first man to go completely stupid in her presence. RIP. (And PLEASE, lets not have these things happen in threes. Thank you.)
