      What a role for Cybill Shepherd. Love it. I have enjoyed her film career. The marriage proposal had me shivering for the loving lawyer. Glad Phyllis said yes. Those politicos should let folks live their lives and live the life they live. Love the storyline.

      Kudos to Cybill for her financial support of the National Civil Rights Museum in her hometown of Memphis. Was anyone there for the opening and could share photos?
