Personally I liked a picture she posted a long time ago (searched and searched to no avail) showing off her construction skills.
I think I recall a picture in a thread "show us where you work" or something like that o_O

I think it's best to wait and let her post it, if she remembers which one.

Lisa, as to your "report", I'm quite certain that no matter what anyone imagines the redacted parts to be, the reality is far worse.
Incidentally, I hope that the photo is really you, because it is now my desktop.
I'm 99.65% certain that the image is hers, based on the incidence of identical twins, and the person I met a few years back who claimed to be her, looked very similar to the image. Though she did have a strange accent.

hmmm... Is there an "Evil lisab" somewhere out there?

Got it. :cool:

With the exception of the siliconis upperfrontals, your version of her photo bears a disturbing resemblance to a biker that I know from the bar. oo)
