Em,
What a great picture! You, looker, you!...yes, you are vain, but aren't we all?!?! ;)
As for your preferences, given your choice of Alias as one of your top TV shows, I feel certain that we can officially be friends. Now, Superfriends on the other hand?
This is something I don't know about you: did you go to A&M? Em, an Aggie?
Hey Ashlee! Go you for filling that out! Very fun! I need to get you, Jason, and the kids to go on a holiday with me. Where should we go?
No, mom did not write the vain comment. That was Veronica Moeller. Nice, huh? OK, I admit that I kind of provoked her, because we were on MSN when she wrote it. ;-)
Sarah - Yeah, that picture is good fun. I mean, it's so posed!
About the TV shows... I dig Alias, but really don't watch TV at all. I've probably only seen four episodes, but I really liked them. That's more than I've seen of any other show, and that whole sleek/cool spy genre is great!
And yep, all five of the Burch kids went to A&M. I even worked there as an administrator and taught Leadership Development for the Educational Psych department. Crazy!

I remember Will working in the Wal-Mart pet deptartment! That was the only time the dead fish weren't outnumbering the live ones! Sheesh.
The dead fish at Walmart are traumatizing. Are they trying to scar our children????????
I remember Chick-fil-a. You never gave me any freebies though.
As for Emer--- you really need to see Zoolander if you haven't-- "BLUE STEEL" baby!
Oh, remember the days of early Pearland... before it became a bustling city-ette!?!? That was back when Will was in Wal-Mart Pets and all was right with the fish (IE, they swam instead of floated!) I think you're right, Veronica!
And Jennifer, I totally agree. Those dead fish everywhere ARE pretty traumatizing. ugh.
I HAVE seen Zoolander. It is hilarious! I am really, really, really, incredibly good-looking with my Blue Steel pose. Oh yeah...
Ok, when I worked there, all the fish were ALIVE! I'd feed all the dead ones to the Oscars! Hahaha!
Of course I never gave you any freebies. You never came by the store when I was there!
Anyways, now I only take care of snakes! Although I do have other animals that are mine. They just aren't nearly as cool. Oh dread, I'm still in Abilene!
