Odacite Makes Fresh, Organic Skin Care

I heard once that Americans don’t like words they can’t pronounce. Whether it be personal names or business names, keep away from anything that isn’t easy to say or spell. Uh oh.

Flash Back

This is a photograph of my father’s ex-wife. She was an actress in New York, and this is a picture that was taken at a photo shoot for an audition. It was a test to see who would be the print model for a large cosmetics company. I don’t think she got the job, but [...]
