Thanks for posting, with all the bad news around it's good to be reminded that life isn't all doom and gloom.

Sent on the run.

Thanks for that. Didn't realise she was a witty woman.

Thanks for that. Didn't realise she was a witty woman.

She was in Shampoo (mid 70s I think) and the original Blues Brothers (1980 or so) as well.

Such a funny girl. She didn't get enough press for her sense of humour.

I met her in 2013 and she slapped me.

She was signing autographs at New York Comic Con and the 501st booth was within sight of her table in the celebrity hall. All day Friday and Saturday the line was huge but Sunday I was there before the doors opened (exhibitor badge) and was suited up as Vader except for the gauntlets and helmet. I looked over and there she was with just her handler the perfect time to go so I grab the mask of my helmet and I am the first on line (after paying 40.00 USD of course). I had to wait about ten minutes or so and watched her, she looked very tired possibly feeling the previous nights celebrations still. The rope is moved and I approach her she never looked up as her handler put the Vader mask in font of her to sign with a special paint pen that I supplied. I watched as she signed my mask in the place I had asked the handler to use then she reached for the glitter. Carrie had a tradition of putting glitter on her hand and brushing the person cheek saying you have been kissed by stardust or some such drivel. Me she finally looked up and shouted Vader and slapped me across the right cheek. There is still some glitter on the helmet (like the autograph you can not see it with the dome on). That helmet was retired two years ago when I got my Darth Stone.
