Sharon Stone Can Even Make A Stroke Seem Insane And Sex-Hungry

When Edinboro University alumnus Sharon Stone addressed the school yesterday at an honors luncheon, she couldn't stress enough the importance of giving something back; after managing to quiet down the talkative group of "naughty, naughty Pennsylvanians," the Razzie-Award-winning actress described life as "a service job. You've got to figure out how you serve people the best and do it." What better example, then, than her involvement in the above 2003 PSA for stroke-awareness, in which she was required to tackle one of the most challenging roles of her career: the embodiment of the cerebrovascular accident itself. (Stone had a stroke scare in 2001.) Submit to your basest sexual impulses with this particular femme fatale, the Stroke Council seems to be telling us, and she'll strike back with acute aphasia and hemispherical paralysis.
