All Time Favorites # 11--Carrie Fisher

I have to thank Carrie Fisher for completely warping my view of women forever by jiggling around in that metal bikini for a giant slug and his coterie of puppet scum and villainy. It more than made up for those accursed Ewoks.

Fisher set the standard for sexy among science fiction fans. There is not a geek out their who has not imagined his favorite girl in that slave girl costume.

She would rank higher if my fondness for her was because of a moment frozen in time. Let us face it, while she had her cute moments early on, Fisher was a spoiled, Beverly hills brat who fell into cocaine before squeezing every dollar out of her “lost years’ experience. She has some miles on her.

Oh, but for a time…
