I dont know. You can do in like Office Space and take'em out for a beer and plot sum revenge, which of course you wuldnt follow thu with. Naw just nxt tyme u talk to her make sure u stress how crappy yur day to day activites r at the office. Even if it wasnt. Let her know she can use you as a reference. So u can speak highly of her to any of her prespective employers.

Oh, Oh, I know this one, I know this one.... :D I just got laid off too - after 16 years. Here are some things some dear friends have done for me: Take her a meal Send her a nice note/card Call and check in - just simply listen - reaching out is HUGE!!! Take her to lunch or dinner Offer help with proofing the resume Send her an inspiring book Offer to help with the job search Encourage her to take time out to re-define who she is - tell her the job is NOT who she is - that's really important Hope this helps!
