My right ear is on upside down (but it faces the right way). I have had a bear in both the front and back seats of my car (not a euphamism). I was recently cast in a commercial as "Small-Chested Woman Clearly Past Her Hottest Years." I enjoy taking advantage of bronze, copper, and other metal-type statues regardless of age or sex. My perfect day starts with a bowl of fruity pebbles and ends with a giant heaping bowl of fruity pebbles.---------------------------------------------------- -------------For actual helpful info (resume and photos) please visit bonniallen.com.
