The woman who made orgasms awkward

The Tartan Online: "Nora Ephron may be 65, but she still has the chutzpah to work a crowd. She demonstrated this while speaking about her writing career this past Wednesday at Heinz Hall in the Cultural District as part of the Pittsburgh Speakers Series. "

I must confess I never had heard about The Pittsburgh Speakers Series. After reading this article about Norah Ephron, I was interested in what other speakers the series include. I have found that the personalilities that are about to come during the next months are really interesting but I am very surprise to find out about the prices… It is not only that the the tickets are so expensive… but also that you cannot buy a single ticket for a single lecture.
Personally I think this is not the way of making culture accesible to anyone.

In any case, though I am not a completely fan of Nora Ephron (does anyone else think see has become too mushy?), it´s worthy to listen to the woman that opened male´s eyes about orgasms… Personally I liked her better when she was more ironic about relationships than romantic, but anyway, I think her comedies are still funny.
