That made me cry--for the second time today. (The other time was when I found out that my boss and my boss's boss voted for Rossi and against my rights.)

She was so brilliant and so broken.

Yardlie, what's wrong with her is that her veins are running thick with drugs. And after all those years of taking drugs, well it don't look so good. See kids what taking drugs will do for you, cept you won't have the TV monitors to twitch in front of.

She taped this episode of the Judy Garland Show shortly after the assassination of JFK. Her performance of this song was her tribute to him. It was controversial with the network (CBS).
