All of Our Judges are Pretty

In the last e-mail announcing Cyndi Edwards as a judge, I said that we needed at least one pretty judge. The other judges are guys, so that's fine. And then someone pointed out that the Brandon Idol Teen judges were all women...oops. So let me say for this for the record: all our judges are pretty.

Whew...I hope that gets me out of that one.
