HOLLYWOOD FASHION PLATE

Does anybody recognize this Hollywood Fashion Plate? I think the photo was taken back in the mid to late 60's at fashion show at CHHS. All I want to know is how that got him to do it, I don't know think I would have. The Florida Gators proved why the SEC is the toughest football conference in America last night crushing Ohio State in the BCS Championship game 41-14, I though Florida might win but I didn't think the would beat the Buckeyes that bad. The game started out great for Ohio State when they ran the opening kickoff back but went down hill from there. The Colonial Heights girls basketball team will be back in action tonight at home against the Matoaca Warriors. I am glad to say that I got a much better nights sleep last night. MICKEY

Ability will never catch up with the demand for it.

Outsmart the menu from Miavita Food Facts
It's possible to eat out and still keep a healthy diet -- if you master a few key strategies. Start by getting the food you want in the amounts you need. If restaurants insist on serving gigantic portions, take advantage of appetizers, soups, salads, a la carte items and side dishes. Split oversized menu items with a dining partner. When eating in a group, order one or two fewer dishes than the number of people at the table, and eat family style.
