Farrah Fawcett Passes Away

Farrah Fawcett passed away today in Santa Monica, CA after a 3 year battle with cancer at the age of 62. Farrah was a 1970's icon and pop culture phenomenon with her long blonde hair and flashing smile. Her posters were a mainstay in most teenage boys rooms during that era.

As an original cast member on "Charlie's Angels", Farrah Fawcett solidified her sex symbol status. Her long battle with cancer was recently chronicled on an NBC documentary entitled "Farrah's Story".

National Doughnut Day

Today is National Doughnut Day!! Yes it is! Cops all over the country are rejoicing in reckless abandon.(oops...sorry) As a matter of fact, 2 of the largest doughnut chains are giving away free doughnuts today.

Dunkin'Donuts and Krispy Kreme are both participating in today's "festivities". At Dunkin' Donuts you have to buy a cup of their fantastic coffee while at Krispy Kreme you get a FREE doughnut.

If you want to take a break from trying to maintain that "girlish figure" then head on over to your friendly neighborhood donut shop and take the plunge.
