From what I've been reading Gabrielle Giffords is a full on hors categorie Badass. It would be beyond tragedy for this country to lose her.

I don't say this often, but God be with her.

a few more and they'll have a congressional bike polo caucus. based on the dr.'s reports, i don't see why she won't be trackstanding on the capital steps in the future?


is that a generator hub in the front?

I read a short interview with her on Tucson Velo too long ago where the author came across her and her husband at a coffee shop after a bike ride. Sounds like a down to earth person and a great congresswoman to have in your district.

I like to think of how exponentially bad ass she will be when she pulls through this ordeal. Imagine... it would be like having a higher calling! I like to think that through the tragedy some amazing things could happen.


call me a perpetual optimist.

@ Edmonds59 - I'd never heard the term "hors categorie" before (shame on me) but now can't get it out of my head. Thanks for an excellent vocab upgrade!
