...also describes foxcalista. She never got on a soapbox, or talked down to me - not even when we had a conference chat with a couple of my Army buddies, and one of them started talking about corpses and prostitutes. She simply excused herself, telling my friends that it was nice to meet them. She never made a big deal about it later, either.
I found it remarkable how she never broke contact without saying good-bye. A lot of people I've met in person will just leave me talking to myself during a chat. She never did that - ever. She always behaved like a lady, even when she was being naughty.
She never acted like it was too much trouble to explain football terms like "RZ" to me; she didn't make fun of me for not knowing who James Gandolfini was, or that the Cincinatti Bengals played football - not baseball.
She always seemed to understand and humor my fascination with her (or Calista's) celebrity. She walked that fine line between privacy, which Calista holds sacred, and fame.
If only everone were as kind, considerate and responsible as her!
