... you were hot!!! And cool, all at the same time.

We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

I assume you mean Bacall.  Interesting that she got her big break at age 19. For a nice Jewish girl from New York, she cultivated quite an air of sophistication and mystery.  Certainly she was one of the class acts of Hollywood.  R.I.P.

I had hoped that I would not need to explain ...

She's with her first husband now.  Bogey got a nice quote from her too: "Except for my first husband, all others were mistakes in hindsight ...".

You didn't really.

A lovely lady who aged well and had a remarkable presence.

A true icon, forever stuck in the shadow of her mentor and husband... rip...

Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

I also think she did great on her own.  She was one of the most important actresses of all time.

It's not those who write the laws that have the greatest impact on society.  It's those who write the songs.
