Farrah Fawcett died today.As a femulator, I always have had an eye for attractive women and I remember spotting Ms. Fawcett in television commercials years before she achieved stardom in Charlie's Angels. She was such a standout that I could not help noticing her and I filed her image away in my mind as someone I might see in the future.
And see her, I did. I probably saw every episode of Charlie's Angels that she appeared in and I continued to watch the series even after her departure because I also had great appreciation for her co-star Jaclyn Smith.
Like many young males in that era, I watched Charlie's Angels to see the women who appeared on that show. The plot was secondary and usually disposable; the women were the main attraction. But unlike most of the male fans of that show, I watched Ms. Fawcett and Ms. Smith because I wanted to emulate them, not bed them.
Anyway, Ms. Fawcett's passing makes me feel sad; may she rest in peace.
Luv you may have a couple of years on me but I felt the same way! I know of a place in Dodgeville, WI that has an autographed photo of her. When I saw that photo those memories came rushing back; much like when I heard the report of her passing.
