re: Hottest Actress of All Time
Posted by MidWestGuy on 4/15/24 at 1:34 pm
CZJ was the model for T-Mobile for a few years. I just melted every time we got a flyer in the mail with her picture on it. She just does it for me.
And of course, Raquel is up there as well.
Who was the other T-Mobile girl? She was hot/cute too. Carly Foulkes:

Doesn't she have anyone proofread her speeches?
She must be too dumb to realize how dumb she is. Yale? Law degree? How can that be (OK, I can guess)?

What's obvious is that you didn't mention what the picture frames are made of. That's essential information. Not only that, but there is plastic and there is plastic.

Because only governments have the money for the equipment to do it.

I actually kind of like this thinking (this is satire, before anyone dumps on me). We can apply it to anything we'd like to be true:

Thanks. Living in the general Chicago area my whole life, I've been to the Art Institute many times, and am always in awe of that work. Just something about it.
And this commercial played around here, with Jennifer Hudson (from American Idol), a Chicago native.

[quote]Most of the time by 10 PM after polls close we know who has won. [/quote]
I think this is pretty common in districts where the results are not close. They don't need to wait for every last vote. Say one is ahead 55/45 by 10,000 votes, even if the trend reversed for the remaining votes, the...

No, they are two different things. Lincoln's birthday is Feb 12th, Washington's Birthday (observed) is the 3rd Monday in Feb (but is actually Feb 22nd).

She wasn't. The "fashion" industry put her out there in the public eye. And it seems the vast majority of those "fashion" guys are gay. They don't like women. Based on what passes for "fashion", I think they HATE women.
