Our FRiends honor the passing of Sally Ride...

She was my hero and my role model when I was young

How utterly sad. Another bright light has moved on.

She was a true American pioneer.


...until someone points out that she was a Lesbian

First GAY in space? Why was it important for you to bring her sex life into a thread meant to pay respect. You really make me sick you sorry SOB. Begone with you.

Surprising to me...when you hold someone up on a pedestal then rear this it kinda takes some of the shine off...
