I had to save this picture for posterity:

googleFrida 300x211 Google celebrates Mexican Painter Frida Kahlos Birthday

I think this is one of the coolest logo doodles that Google has ever done.  Just genious. 

Here’s a few links of the coverage it received:

Los Angeles Times

The Guardian

The Advocate

New York Daily News

ABC News

Here’s a list of previous Google doodles.

PS: have you seen the movie yet? Salma Hayek did great job playing Frida.

Update: here’s a cool list of Frida quotes. Here’s my favorite:

They are so damn `intellectual` and rotten that I can`t stand them anymore….I [would] rather sit on the floor in the market of Toluca and sell tortillas, than have anything to do with those `artistic` bitches of Paris.

Cindy McCain has come out

…in support of gay marriage:

Cindy McCain supports gay marriage

…I wonder if daughter Meghan McCain had anything to do with this (Meghan has previously made her support for gay marriage known publicly, angering the extreme conservative wing of the Republican Party).  To read the statement that John McCain released in response to his wife ”going rogue” on him, visit DailyKos here.

Update: wonder how Sarah Palin will explain it to her teabagger followers why she campaigns to support John McCain, whose wife now supports gay marriage…
