Sound familiar, Tim?"), Myskina ("enticing, dark, eastern European look"), Rubin ("September 12 is now known as Chanda Rubin Day in her home town of Lafayette, Louisiana"), Sugiyama ("The only way to find a more mild-natured player would be to feed Sue Barker a stupdendous amount of Prozac and put her in a poppy field while the Corrs sang lullabies"), SW ("Luvvy rating 1/10, the one being Venus"), VW (Luvvy rating 1/10, reciprocal voting and all that"). --
