I KNOW how hard it is to try and do a round shape. Really good executing this one. I couldn't do it.. I tried and failed miserably. Congrats on your win!

VERY nicely done, Laura. YEah, that crazy Russel. How the heck does he expect to win with his back stabbing ways? And now that everyone is on to him, there is no way he would last more than a very short time in a rematch! Luv, andrea
