Singer and actress Eartha Kitt has died at age 81.

Kitt was always my favourite Catwoman on the Batman TV show, and her single "Santa Baby" has become a Christmas classic.

She also stood up to the Johnson administration during the Vietnam War, and got blacklisted for it.

And my favourite piece of Eartha trivia: A marquee featuring her is prominently visible in Plan 9 From Outer Space, Ed Wood's bad movie masterpiece.

Thank you, Eartha, for all the joy you brought!

So, that's what the lyrics are. I could never figure them out.

It's sad that she's gone. I'm glad that we have recording devices now.

My long-running fantasy of having sex with Ms. Kit has been dashed into pieces. I'm very sad to lose her (and to lose that fantasy).

Actually it was me. I didn't realize I wasn't signed in for that comment. :-0
