RIP Jocelyne Roy Vienneau, Lieutenant-Governor of New Brunswick.

(In Canada's Parliamentary system, the Lieutenant-Governor is the Head of State of a province, and gets stuck with the ceremonial duties.)

Nuts.  One of my favorite wisecracks is based on Rhoda once joking on MTMS that at birth she'd been kidnapped from the Gypsies by a roving band of Jewish mothers.  When I use it, it's Lutheran mothers who stole me from my alleged Roma heritage.  My sister was shocked recently when she heard me say it, 'cause she uses a variant of the line, too, and had forgotten where we got it.
