This might seem weird, but I love watching Linda Kohlmeyer (sp?) on the lottery drawing and I live in Arkansas! Her effervescent personality shines through and it`s hard to imagine her having a bad day! Also, her sense of style is great and I love to see what she`s wearing! Maybe I have a woman crush!?
