They make that exact point at the end of Chappy Goes to Mardi Gras. Great film.

She was the lead designer for Vera Wang and Caroline Herrarra in NY before she came back home. She is really talented.

To be a Thoth page would complete my life.

The most important organizations are the ones you participate in.

It really is, wife and I watch every Mardi Gras, and usually a few times during the year. Great time capsule
