I was thinking we could do the same thing as the guys are! Tell us 10 random, funny, cool things about yourself that we didn't know! I can go first! 1. I am a vegetarian! 2. I skipped a year in school, grade 3, and have been working for two years even though I am only 18! (My birthday is in November!) 3. I've danced with Canada's Royal Winnipeg Ballet School. Right now I ballroom dance and do hip hop...My ballet days are over! 4. Most of my family is in the film business, I plan on following in that business and will be doing make-up artistry for films in the near future! 5. I live only one hour away from the Rocky Mountains and have never skied or snowboarded. 6. I work out almost every day! 7. I got my eyebrow pierced after getting VERY drunk after a hockey game this last March. And strangely enough, I love it!!! 8. Los Angeles is basically my second home. I go there at least once every few months to visit family and to work. 9. My sister and I are allergic to the sun! We get VERY itchy after being in it for too long, and sometimes get sick. This isn't sun stroke, we've had that too! 10. My family is the 4th descendant of French Royalty! Your turn!! -Vanessa |

Hmmm, let's see... 1. I am descended from one of the pilgrims that landed at Plymouth rock 2. I am also distantly related to Elizabeth Cady Stanton, an American social activist and leading figure of the early woman's movement. 3. I love making short movies and had one accepted into the TromaDance Film Festival. 4. I am the volunteer coordinator for said film festival and travel to Park City, UT every January (our festival takes place at the same time as Sundance). 5. I have two nieces that live in Arizona with my brother who I almost never see and four nephews that live here in town that I just love to bits. 6. I have lived in Louisville my whole life, except for two months when I moved to Buffalo, NY to work on a movie. 7. July 1 will be my 11 year anniversary with my current employer. 8. My older siblings were adopted because my mom wasn't supposed to be able to have children. She calls me and my little brother her miracles. 9. I had my gallbladder removed in February (gallbladder attacks are very painful, and I actually have a high tolerance for pain). 10. I saved this one for last so Michele wouldn't feel so bad... I go to sci-fi conventions (and used to go to anime conventions) and when I was thinner, I dressed up like anime characters:![]() (I'm on the left) |

Fun facts ladies....love reading about your little quirks!! Here are some of mine! 1. My biggest fear is water...large or running bodies of water, and even shows about flooding are enough to make me have a panic attack. Stems from almost drowning at age 4 in our pool. 2. My middle name is Ryan, named after an old 70's soap opera "Ryan's Hope" 3. My family on my dad's side is descendants of the infamous McCoy clan of Kentucky. My mom was shocked and pleased to find this out while doing the geneaology, since dad's family always ripped on her for being a hillbilly because she was born in West Virginia. 4. I was an all state baton twirler when I was younger, and performed at the half time show at the Orange Bowl in 1996. 5. I have a fascination with serial killers. I read every book and seen ever show/movie I can get my hands on. Their minds have always intrigued me and I have often thought about going back to school to be a criminal psychologist. 6. I am part of a paranormal investigation group, and have been on many hunts throughout Ohio. A few places i have my sights set to go in the future is Gettysburg and Salem,MA for investigations. 7. I attended Kent State University, where the anti war shootings happened by the National Guard in 1970. I could NEVER walk on that grassy knoll where it happened because it gave me the major creeps. 8. I am excited about the upcoming NKOTB reunion LOL ( i know...call me lame!). They were my first concert when I was 10 years old and I am seeing them again October 3. Nostalgia keeps me young! 9. I never buy anything full price (clothing, shoes, purses). I am the biggest bargain shopper and coupon clipper you've ever met. I feel like I am commiting a crime if I pay full price! 10. I am Irish and Scottish and take pride in my lineage. St. Patrick's Day is my favorite holiday and my pet peeve is when is is exploited by a bunch of frat boys who just drink green beer and call themselves Irish LOL. |

I'll jump with in 10 random things about me...(but keep in mind my life isn't very exciting!)... 1. Hillary Clinton was my graduation speaker when I graduated from college. 2. I have driven a race car (NASCAR) at Charlotte Motor Speedway. 3. The last time I ate meat was in the spring of 1994. I can still remember what it was and where I was at. 4. One year in college I took classes in Spanish, German, French and Arabic. 5. I flew to SD this May for a friends wedding and there was a tornado outbreak that night I arrived. There was a tornado approx 1 mile from her house, another 1 mile from the hotel I was staying in later that weekend, and one 2 miles from the place we were eating dinner when they happened. Please note, I am terrified of tornados, but my friend's fiancee's family got up and ate got more food as the tornado was heading our way. 6. When I was in Jr High and early high school years, Fergie (from the Black Eyed Peas) and I used to write each other. 7. I am obsessed with the TV show Miami Ink, but have absolutely NO DESIRE to ever get a tattoo. 8. I've only flown 4 times in my life. Three times were for work and one time was for pleasure. 9. Some friends (cough couch JACKIE) and I invented truth or dare Jenga when I was in college. 10. I have this lovely scar across my left wrist from where my cat fell out of her cat tree and I tried to catch her. She's declawed in the front but apparently decided to see if she could hang from my wrist with her rear claws. Ok... you can wake up now.. I'm finished... |

1. I know how to strip a booth seat and have seen things in them that would make you never want to eat out again. 2. All of my siblings and I have a scar on our forehead. We all got it different ways though. 3. I used to only listen to music from the sixties until about a year ago and the Kaiser Chiefs is the band responsible for that change. 4. I am French and Irish, but I look mostly Irish, which means that I am always pale. 5. I named my dog after my great grandfather. 6. My dad named me after a city in Ireland that he flew into a year before I was born. 7. I used to be obsessed with James Dean and as a result I have four James Dean posters, two James Dean tin signs, and all [three] of his movies. 8. I love British music, yet one of my biggest pet peeves is when people say American music sucks. 9. My favorite band is The Who (although The Beatles are a very close second). 10. I had jaw surgery about a year ago and, as a result, the only bone I've ever had broken was my jaw. I have some very lovely screws in my jaw now, and if you ever see an x-ray of my jaw, you can see them, haha. |

Robin, you are on your own with Waverly! Hal Sparks was on a VH1 show called Celebrity Paranormal Project, and they had him toss balls out in different directions when he was in the solarium. Had him talk to a ghost named Timmy. ALL THE FREAKING BALLS ROLLED BACK TO HIM. I know someone that was on the paramedic crew and he said there were no people from the crew in there... just Hal and some other "celebrity." Then one of the balls followed them all the way down the stairs and around corners and stuff. No thanks! |

Courtney, Have you ever done anything in Athens, OH? I did my undergrad at Ohio University. There were always all types of rumors floating about paranormal and ghosts around but I have no idea how much truth there was to them. |
