"Well, that is just awful! It looks like someone is shining a flashlight at her."

"So, I know what you're thinking, why not just do bounce flash? Michelle, look right here, and...." <click>

Fong is a master at marketing.

Who would have thunk a milk jug could one day become the Fong Dong. Good for him though. Made him a wealthy man.. That and a few other things.

I am waiting on Daniel's "Interpretations" of these images.. hehe
