EMBARRASSING MOMENT: I accidentally pepper-sprayed the surgeon who was writing me a letter of recommendation for medical school

every nurse’s dream accident! LOL

Wow. That's a broad statement.

I don't see any big boobs

But do see some comments that lean towards the “empty heads” direction.

Yeah, I was gonna say

No big boobs to be seen anywhere around here. If anything, it seems like they’re hiring for model looks, slender with minimal curves. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but I like my women to look like women in the right places.

Witty .sig goes here.

Not allowed to vote.

My younger son is dating a girl who was invited to join the Strike Force. Family ethics mandate I vote for her, and she is not on the list…

Wrong son. 'Qube is the elder.

The youngster is an HH’er, but quite rare.

However, your request remains valid. As it happens, they probably have 100 photos of themselves just at Angels Stadium.

I would be the younger.

And yes, my girlfriend was approached to be on the strike force and she was unable to do it because of schedule conflicts she could not change. The good thing is her really good friend who I have met a couple time is on it. She is Ally, the one from glendora, which is also where my gf is from.

So for those of you keeping score at home, HaloVET wins.

strike force = gross

what is the point of the strike force, anyway?

why are they called the strike force? what does that have to do with Angels, the name or baseball or the Angels brand?

these are not rhetorical….. =]

ALLY

She is not they like most girls that love shopping and doing girly stuff (I’m sure she enjoys it from time to time but likes doing other things.) she likes wakeboarding which is extreamly hot because she is a sports chick which is always cool because you can do almost anything together like you would with a pal.

So, certain comments in these biogs lead to immediate elimination...

...Greatest achievement
“Being a big sister” – that’s not an achievement, it’s an accident of genetics. Aim higher.

3 words to describe you
“happy, goofy, fabulous” – that’s 2 parts Disney combined with 1 part gay man – no thanks

Interesting fact
“I once found a typo in a dictionary” – I don’t know where to begin with this

Embarrasing moment
“I tripped and fell while walking off the floor at a gymnastics competition” – clearly unable to walk in a straight line on flat ground (on the other hand, a gymnast who spends too much time on her back… maybe one for consideration)

I’ll go with Alana. She is lovely.

I see red people

Speaking of which...

Does anyone remember that commercial from earlier this year…I think it was for the Vlad 2000 hits mini-bats…where Vlad was applying pine tar next to a member of the strike force and then he looks up at the camera with this HUGE creepy grin on his face?

This poll is sheer GENIUS

Wile E. Coyote level. A few comments in and already L.M.A.O. The pictures are in fact too small, but then again I think the Angels are not inclined to turn their website into a landing spot for leering perverts…that being said, I’d go with Krystal…EXCEPT I can’t deny someone who wants to be an organized, materialistic, well-tanned FBI agent, so Taylor it is!

And she likes House.

by LUVtheLAA on Aug 7, 2008 7:37 AM PDT   0 recs

Plus, Taylor's favorite movie is Billy Madison

I know it’s juvenile, but any girl who likes that movie gets my vote. And she likes to tan. That’s a great combination for me.

by Dogman on Aug 7, 2008 8:46 AM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Krystal is organised too

You gotta like organised girls. Plus she’s a homegirl from Orange. And her favourite Angel is Desmond. She gets my vote.

OC must certainly have changed.

Back in the 60’s and 70’s, gorgeous young ladies were stacked like cord wood on the local beaches. Places like Bakersfield were where you could not separate the daughters from the livestock.

I actually don't think that much has changed ;-)

Although some people might’ve moved to Bakersfield or further to be able to continue living in SoCal.

The Grapevine is a local name that commonly refers to

the mountain pass of the Tejon area that you cross when getting between the LA basin (where all the smog is) and the San Juaquin Valley (where all the agriculture is).

You will also hear this part of I-5 called The Tejon Pass, or “the Castaic area”. It’s where everybody stops at the town of Gorman for gas, Burger King, or radiator repairs.
