That photo meant a whole lot to millions and millions of Americans.

Most of whom are nearing the ends of their lives, or have finished their life...

just like Edith Shaine.

what this one moment, captured in an instant meant to millions of people who lived through this time - even those of us who came along later. It is iconic and truly one of those pictures worth a thousand words.

13. Except they were lesbians...
I love that movie. Much more accessible than that rather tedious graphic novel.

I know I am in the minority but the comic was all over the place and looked like some precocious kid in college was trying to weave every thought he ever had into the theory of life...

I know, it was just a comic book but so many are still searching for the meaning of life in side those pages...
