This morning we woke to the news that Shirley Temple had died in her sleep. Peacefully, I hope. She was 85. The inter-tubes were clogged for a bit as social media buzzed with the story. This particular tweet cracked me up:
"In 1938 a witness told the House Committee on Un-American Activities that Shirley Temple was a Communist sympathizer."
She was ten years old at the time.
