I never noticed it and I was quite close to her. The static electricity was AWFUL in the building yesterday.

And of course, the GSD was the first he examined. viv Vivian Brown Santa Ana CA Vivian Brown Santa Ana CA ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
