Carrie Fisher Quote
"He told me later that I had turned him gay . . . by taking codeine again. And I said, 'You know, I never read that warning on the label.' I thought it said 'heavy machinery,' not homosexuality - turns out I could have been driving those tractors all along!"--On former husband Bryan Lourd, in Wishful DrinkingNew York Post: Princess Carrie Settles the Score (October 20, 2008)

Carrie Fisher be crazy, yall. Wishful Drinking was pretty damn good. Certainly better than rehashed Swedish plays with spotty acting.
