Since we have so many blogs and sites to read, I'll keep mine short tonight. Btw Leah, you can copy and paste (and edit) your SkinnyGirl Blog to this site and kill two birds with one stone. Of course editing out the Bruegg/ Lindz comments.

I'll give you your scores tomorrow, provided that you read and answer the quiz questions.
