Raise a glass, say a prayer, or just send a good thought.

Stephanie Kwolek, the inventor of Kevlar, died on Wednesday.

Probably saved more lives single handedly than anyone.

And her work made our Ducatis a lot better.

Ducati is the pretty girl that can't walk in heels without stumbling. I still love her.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.
