One More Of Tiz

I took this photo of Tiz two years ago at the Hominy Grill in Charleston. She looks pretty damn good for a woman her age. People used to tell her she looked like Barbara Bush, which is a fucking insult: Barbara Bush was the only member of the Bush family Nixon liked because (according to Gore Vidal), "She really knows how to hate." That's reason enough to regard the comparison as unflattering to my mom; another reason is simply the way Barbara Bush looks. Tiz had perfect skin.

And Barbara Bush's outfits look like they come inside bags of Purina Dog Chow; Tiz was stylish to the end.
