Not to mention ballet teachers, gymnastic and diving coaches, beauty pagent judges...the list is endlessCatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13738366255343185057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1449641905298601952.post-22713895195272046692010-12-07T04:45:26.603-08:002010-12-07T04:45:26.603-08:00I'm sure you are right.
