Yesterday on Jimmy Carter’s 100th Birthday we
watched on Public TV a special named something like MISS LILLIAN, which a Miss
Lillian lookalike told in first person of her experiences, quotes, shooting
from the hip, and so on. The actor
looked so much like Miss Lillian she would remind us it wasn’t really her by
starting off a sentence like “After I died ….” a couple of times.
It was great, see it if you can find it on educational TV.
It reminded me of November 1976, when Jimmy Carter was
elected President. We drove to Plains,
Georgia, to take pictures. Miss Lillian
was very much available in and near the train depot. She was very graceful and only lost her cool
when a lady tried to hug her. Afterall,
she was a nurse and knew about germs and hugging.
