THE GREAT GADFLY:

Big Girls Do Cry

...it's a photo taken of Edith Massey "having a moment" at her Baltimore thrift shop, "Edith's Shopping Bag". What makes this snapshot even MORE special is that it was taken by Bob Adams, an old-skool Dreamlander who played Ernie in "Female Trouble" ("I'm sure, Miss Thing, I'm sure - pretzels give you plaque!") and one of the goons in "Desperate Living".

The Lady The Eggs Love Most will have a good home in my front hallway, right across from a portrait of Little Edie Beale and under a happy dancing monkey in a bright red frame.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go get my hair bleached out by a female impersonator at the Wagonwheel in plenty of time for my boy-date.
