Oh I see, you're saying the "ladies who lunch" love her. Not that she was zaftig herself. That was some fancy footwork there, Brock. Kudos.

"Zaftig"? Um, no. She was many things but zaftig was def not among them.

R.I.P., Betti. Heaven just got a little hotter. which, thankfully, resurrected the career of Gretchen Mol. I never know when you're being sarcastic, Brock- but I'll second that. She's great in the American version of Life On Mars. The show itself? Not great- but a fun guilty pleasure for the soundtrack alone (take a drink every time Harvey Keitel punches someone).

page was curvy, or whatever, Brock, they were lying to you, girls do not have cooties!

page was curvy, or whatever, so women, if i can generalize, who tend not to have eating disorders and/or cocaine problems seem to enjoy her. thus: zaftig.

Zaftig? Page was many things, but zaftig? I think you need to reconsider use of that word. Unless, of course, you're like comparing her to like the heroin chic skeletor with a pierced lip hipster standard of conventional female beauty that applies in your world, today, now.
