Stay in touch.<br /><br />No takers on the earlier geometry puzzle?<br /><br />JD was nice to alert me to Sofia Vergara's appearance on Dr. Oz today. She was enjoyable to look at and listen to as I expected. She had to have a cancerous thyroid removed 10 years ago. She also mentioned that when she was first getting her foot in the door in Hollywood, a bunch of different people advised her to lose weight and get breast reduction surgery. She made an intelligent decision to leave well enough alone but began to eat healthier and get more exercise. Good for her. Worked out well I'd say.Bill G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04142837879175561312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5995532066584316410.post-59498128305936158942013-04-18T22:18:55.386-05:002013-04-18T22:18:55.386-05:00PS: Pas de chat, Thanks for the shout out.
