(NT) -- No name, 22:53:48 05/18/12 Fri PA needs to change the judges selection process they have had for the past few years. Or, maybe they don't want to place at Miss America.

How is her talent? (NT) -- No name, 08:50:44 05/21/12 Mon Her talent is very strong. Weakness is SS. Curious why you are pulling for her if you don't know how her talent is? Not being smart about it, just curious why you picked her... from headshot. And I agree that she could be a contender if she got her SS into shape. (NT) -- No name, 10:49:56 05/21/12 Mon I watched the video of all the girls introducing themselves. There was something about her that I liked. (NT) -- No name, 23:32:42 05/22/12 Tue Ditto.

(NT) -- appreciate your input, 12:39:16 05/24/12 Thu The other two I had as possible winners in SS were Mackenzie Bart and Cassie Cerulli. They both looked just as good, (actually, these two are probably the most beautiful girls in the pageant) but they just don't yet carry themselves with the stage presence that Ryann & Jordyn have. (NT) -- No name, 13:22:45 05/24/12 Thu Thanks for your review. (NT) -- No name, 15:41:02 05/24/12 Thu Thank you very much for taking the time to do this review!

She's performed at our state pageant for a number of years now, and we just love her to pieces. So glad she won talent - she's an incredible performer!

First night swimsuit photos were thick girls, second night much better. (NT) -- No name, 17:48:52 05/25/12 Fri In her defense (and the defense of all glasses-wearers out there), some people honestly look better while wearing glasses. Also, I don't know why that's something to hate about: she may be legally blind, unable to wear contacts due to a terrible astigmatism, or just more comfortable in glasses. (NT) -- HungryCollegeStudent, 18:59:47 05/25/12 Fri I love wearing glasses. (NT) -- No name, 19:08:04 05/25/12 Fri I don't know why you'd need to wear glasses for a headshot.

She is my pick for the win. (NT) -- Out of state observer, 02:05:01 05/26/12 Sat Agree. I get Jennifer berry vibes from her!

Cake or cupcakes? (NT) -- No name, 19:24:37 05/25/12 Fri Our local has pinwheels (ham/turkey/cheese wrapped in tortillas then cut into slices), cake/cupcakes, finger sandwiches, fruit trays, sometimes they will have bbq meatballs/smokies, just different finger foods (NT) -- No name, 19:41:25 05/25/12 Fri search for h'ordeuvres on Pinterest! (NT) -- No name, 22:25:40 05/25/12 Fri Cheese trays (NT) -- No name, 22:37:05 05/25/12 Fri I host parties at least monthly and have a ton of appetizers that always go over big. Obviously, they are meant more for the supporters than the delegates (re: nutrition). I've included 3 super popular ones. Also, my mama recently shared with me a reuban dip (pretty much layer all the ingredients and serve with toasted rye). Some may seem somewhat time consuming but all can be mostly prepared in advance :) -- RockyGirl, 00:48:53 05/26/12 Sat What wonderful recipies. (NT) -- Thank you, 00:54:06 05/26/12 Sat You're so welcome :) Feel free to email if you would like more; I've been amassing favorite recipes for YEARS! (NT) -- RockyGirl, 02:38:00 05/26/12 Sat @rockygirl - why do you post here when you shun it on another board? why do you as a mod (after a year where the porn activity is no longer present) do you not accept posters?

Subject: Who won the talent preliminary when Tammy Walker competed?

I have been online for over an hour trying to find the answer to this. I do not remember who won Talent in 88 except Stacie James (who was incredible). I'm imagining Searight and Brant also won talent. 88 was a year of great talents. Too bad MAO doesn't stress this anymore. It makes for a great show when talented people have more than 90 seconds to showcase what they have. (NT) -- This 90 second talent these days is a joke. MAO puts its nose up to MUO because "we compete in talent", yet MAO has diluted talent to NOTHING., 17:54:16 05/25/12 Fri Kim, Brant and James won talent. Humphries, Jerles and Rafko won SS. Evelyn Ay announced the preliminary winners right at the start of the telecast, just as someone did the year before. (NT) -- No name, 19:46:28 05/25/12 Fri The talent winner her night was Miss Wisconsin, Maria Kim, who played the piano ("Fantaisie Impromptu"). A fun detail: Tammy Walker was the last talent to present on the last night of preliminaries. Then, in the top ten, she went first. (NT) -- IMA STARALL-REDDY, 18:20:34 05/25/12 Fri Kim didn't make top 10 that year, despite winning a talent preliminary....and Miss Georgia Kelly Jerles won a swimsuit preliminary and didn't make top 10, but she won a nonfinalist talent award. Still cannot understand georgia missing the call unless MAO figured she would be real competition for Kaye Lani Rae Rafko (whom I love). (NT) -- No name, 18:30:57 05/25/12 Fri Georgia was not a high scorer in interview. There have been many prelim swimsuit winners who didnt make Top 10 but also ended up with non-finalist talent. (NT) -- No name, 00:27:31 05/26/12 Sat Who the hell is Tammy Walker and why does someone keep posting about her here? (NT) -- No name, 18:34:19 05/25/12 Fri (NT) -- No name, 18:38:00 05/25/12 Fri I always kinda admired the way she put her arms straight out at the end, in lieu of a bow. Seemed very seasoned Broadway diva to me (in a good way). And lord knows her vocal ability far surpasses most of what we get anymore. Coulda lived without the kicks, but still like her a lot. (NT) -- No name, 18:53:19 05/25/12 Fri This is one of my favorite pageants EVER and although at the time I didn't fully appreciate Tammy, I realize now that she was an amazing vocalist. And she looked good in that sequined jumpsuit, which is hard to do!! (NT) -- No name, 19:16:41 05/25/12 Fri I was at this MA. What is lost on video is that the acoustics and sound that night were perfect, you can't hear it on the video. When Tammy opened up and started belting it came through loud and clear in Convention Hall. To call her amazing that night is being conservative. You can hear the crowd was totally with her. It was the performance of the night by FAR, and there were tons of other great talents. Brant also got the crowd behind her too. A wonderful night. (NT) -- I know Rafko had them at hello/interview, but there were many other just as worthy winners that year., 01:41:22 05/26/12 Sat Adding to my post, at least a quarter to half the audience gave her a standing O, including me. That never happened at MA. I was so sure Tammy would have a great career ahead of her. You just don't take down the audience in Convention Hall on middling talent. She was the real deal and the audience loved her. I wish there would have been more mics in the audience, she literally brought them to their feet. (NT) -- Gosh, I sound like a family member. I'm not, but it was one of those spine-tingling moments where you know you are seeing greatness., 01:53:36 05/26/12 Sat This is the first that I've ever heard that she got a standing ovation. Wasn't talent 50 % back then? Truly makes you wonder how she wasn't able to make it to top five. (NT) -- No name, 02:50:13 05/26/12 Sat You don't know of Tammy Walker? Oh, sit down, child. Tammy Walker is a goddess in this universe. We'll have to kick you out of the club, or at least strike you down, for comments unbecoming a crown-worshipper. Knowing your stuff is fundamental to being a true pageant guru. To remain in good standing, you must kick as high as Tammy did 100 times. Then you must hug Heidi Lammi. Do you know what Sisu is? I used to think it was a type of rice; so as you can see, we all have to start somewhere. (NT) -- No name, 20:26:52 05/25/12 Fri She was Miss Maryland 1987 and a GREAT singer. Should have been Top 5, I will never understand that one. (NT) -- No name, 20:37:11 05/25/12 Fri That was a very strong top 5 that year....I liked tammy but not sure I would have replaced one of the top 5 with her. (NT) -- No name, 22:48:10 05/25/12 Fri Mississippi or Missouri would have been out for me (NT) -- No name, 23:16:58 05/25/12 Fri Missouri did not make the top 5. (NT) -- Ladies and gentlemen...this Robin is going to fly!, 23:30:51 05/25/12 Fri LOL. I so remember that "This Robin is about to fly" line. So 80s pageant cheesetastic! I think that poster meant LaTanya Hall, Miss CO. She sang ok, but her beauty was not all there if you know what I mean. I had no idea why she made top 5. What hindered Tammy was her look, even in 88 her hair was way off, she just didn't have the right team behind her on hair/makeup/wardrobe. (NT) -- This was one of my fave MAs ever. The talent was endless. Sauder, James, Walker, Searight, Brant were all 9 or 10. Imagine saying that in the last decade, NEVER., 01:27:27 05/26/12 Sat Tammy wants to stay on this board. (NT) -- No name, 20:00:40 05/25/12 Fri All past contestants have fans. (NT) -- No name, 20:20:09 05/25/12 Fri Didn't Tammy's older sister Tonya also win the Miss MD-USA crown and later star in a soap opera? (NT) -- No name, 20:33:04 05/25/12 Fri Yes, she did. Tonya also was top ten, at Miss USA her year. GORGEOUS eyes and is still very very pretty!! (NT) -- No name, 23:02:19 05/25/12 Fri Tammy was on the Gillette Troupe back in the day and performed at our state pageant. I got to pick her up at the airport. She was talented, for sure, but not the warmest friendliest person you'll ever meet........just my 2 cents. (NT) -- No name, 00:19:44 05/26/12 Sat She's not. But she is courteous and respectful. She's not all fake and bake. (NT) -- You must be from the south., 02:11:31 05/26/12 Sat Ugly lady; not a good talent. (NT) -- Next, 20:42:34 05/25/12 Fri Idiot poster. Doesn't have a clue. (NT) -- No name, 20:47:06 05/25/12 Fri Tell me about it (NT) -- No name, 20:52:29 05/25/12 Fri Well, she's certainly a spunky little lass isn't she? Very, very good in a old school pageant kind of way. Hard to believe that she did not win talent. Is she still involved in the Miss MD Pageant? (NT) -- No Name, 23:53:53 05/25/12 Fri I can distinctly remember watching this pageant and thought that after Patricia Brandt and been called as 1st runner-up that Tammy had it. Her talent IMO was a 10 and she was consistent in the other areas. Never in a million years did I think Kaye Lani would win with that talent, but I'm sure she blew the judges away in interview, which is what propelled her to the top. And in retrospect, l know she was a fantastic Miss America and probably rightfully deserved the title. As a Wisconsinite, I was devastated that Maria Kim didn't make top ten. To anyone that was in Atlantic City that year, what are your thoughts as to why she didn't make it to the semi-final round. (NT) -- Miss WI / Miss America fan, 23:43:17 05/25/12 Fri It was a very strong year, and Maria didn't really stand out until the third night of preliminaries. By then, it was too late to garner enough points to make the top ten. But I'll bet she was somewhere around 13th-15th. (NT) -- IMA STARALL-REDDY, 23:50:11 05/25/12 Fri She had a hanger in her dress in the opening number. (NT) -- No name, 23:55:10 05/25/12 Fri She didn't have a hanger, there were wired underskirts under those gowns to give them their full shape; Maria's wire was coming out of the underskirt, she wasn't dragging a coat hanger! (NT) -- No name, 00:15:44 05/26/12 Sat Maria had a very shrill voice and talked like a 13 year old. Beautiful girl and very very talented, but the minute she opened her mouth it was over. Even the people with the Miss Wisconsin Program who were around them will still admit that. Maria and her mother were very bitter about her not making top 10 at Miss America. She's not been back to the Miss Wisconsin Pageant since she gave up her title. Too bad because her sister, KK was top 10 at Miss America in 1981. (NT) -- No name, 00:18:16 05/26/12 Sat She was a fantastic pianist! Far superior to Marjorie Vincent. But she wore a black & red two toned swimsuit...heinous! Her gown was blah and as someone mentioned, her speaking voice was a turn off. (NT) -- No name, 00:30:42 05/26/12 Sat I thought her sister was going to be Miss America in Elizabeth Ward's year. I guess I was never a major Elizabeth Ward fan. But when they got to announcing the win, I was certain that KK was going to win. (NT) -- No name, 00:53:21 05/26/12 Sat The year both of them competed was very weak overall. Ward likely won the gown and swimsuit competition by a large margin. I would have taken Sandra Truitt out of the T5 and placed Keungsuk Kim in her place. (NT) -- No name, 01:10:39 05/26/12 Sat How can you possibly say that the year Maria competed was a weak year? That was one of the best top ten ever : Tammy Walker, LaTonya Hall, Toni Seawright, Kaye Lani, Patricia Brandt, Stacy James . . . were all great. And regarding Maria, that is what I always suspected. She came across more like a teen contestant than a Miss, which was odd because she was older than when Keungsuk competed at Miss America. I believe Keungsuk was like 18 or 19 and came across much older. I never felt Keungsuk would advance past top 10 ten that year. Like Sandra Truitt, I thought she came across a little stuffy, weak swimsuit and so-so gown. Elizabeth Ward was the no-brainer that year -- perfect 10 in gown and swimsuit, plus she was gorgeous. (NT) -- Miss Wi fan / Miss America fan, 01:38:11 05/26/12 Sat Thanks, I couldn't understand that either. That was one of the best MA pageants in the last 30 years, if not THE best. (NT) -- I felt badly for Stacie James who was getting over Bell's Palsy and still had facial paralysis. Her "On My Own" is one of my favorite renditions of it. What a voice., 02:03:52 05/26/12 Sat

(NT) -- No name, 16:43:31 05/18/12 Fri Strictly based on these intros I will go with Miss Spivey.. Mary Catherine. Know nothing of her talent etc. Can anyone from NC give me info about her as a competitor? (NT) -- No name, 20:32:37 05/20/12 Sun yep. I just watched all I could get through and She was the best followed by Miss Wilmington. (NT) -- No name, 20:34:10 05/20/12 Sun She was top five last year, Mary Catherine Tucker (NT) -- No name, 20:40:17 05/20/12 Sun Mary Catherine has a great vocal and a strong platfrom. Pretty girl! (NT) -- No name, 16:12:12 05/25/12 Fri You really can tell alot from just a minute of hearing them speak. I watched all of them and never have followed NC so this was my only exposure and she was top 5. I watched only about 20 seconds of each one and it was seen that quickly.. Confirms that you can get all you need in a 10 minute interview! (NT) -- No name, 20:45:21 05/20/12 Sun My pick Mya Kayler -- No name, 11:16:06 05/21/12 Mon Miss Queen City, Mya Kayler, is exceptional. No weak areas.....great in interview, talent, swimsuit and strikingly beautiful. Former OT in NC and first runner-up in SC last year. (NT) -- No name, 11:19:15 05/21/12 Mon Didn't like her video. Don't know her but not impressed for a first runner up. (NT) -- No name, 19:00:18 05/25/12 Fri Mya speaking voice is not good. Her appearance was poor for a former 1st runner up. I am sure she is a lovely girl, but I don't feel she will win (NT) -- No name, 19:09:53 05/25/12 Fri Mya is a very well spoken contestant. She is a natural in interview. Granted, I do not think that this time warner speech is a good indicator of what she can do. (NT) -- No name, 21:21:51 05/25/12 Fri SC interview was great! Very natural and down to earth. She has all the other areas of competition covered well too. Won SS and Evening Gown in SC and has a remarkable voice. Just what Miss America is looking for...a beauty that is able to talk to people and look good doing it. SC FAN!! (NT) -- No name, 21:50:17 05/25/12 Fri My pick is Amanda Sowards. Strong in all categories and very involved with her platform. (NT) -- No name, 11:29:08 05/21/12 Mon IMO, Amanda is in the same boat as Damaris (OK) and Simone (AR). They peaked early.

(NT) -- No name, 20:34:57 05/25/12 Fri Ooops, let me add Misty Clymer to that (even though we aren't "legally allowed" to recognize her as a Miss NC).

(NT) -- No name, 14:57:05 05/24/12 Thu anyone that works with a contestant (Local Director, etc) is considered a COACH, whether they are compensated or NOT.

Paragraph 3A explains the people prohibited from judging under Rule 3.

Subject: Man pleads guilty to trying to take indecent photograph of Miss TN
Author: Poor Erin!! [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 12:03:22 05/25/12 Fri JACKSON, Tenn. (AP) � A West Tennessee man has pleaded guilty to attempting to photograph reigning Miss Tennessee Erin Hatley in a tanning booth, authorities said. Nicholas Vestal of Bells pleaded guilty Wednesday to attempting to commit unlawful photography in violation of privacy, the Jackson Police Department said. Vestal apologized to Hatley, who was present in the courtroom. Police said Hatley, who was crowned Miss Tennessee 2011 last June, noticed a cell phone extended over a wall between her booth and an adjoining booth at Island Tan and Swimwear in Jackson on May 5. Hatley yelled and the individual immediately removed the phone. An investigation showed Vestal, 27, did not take any photos or videos, but activated the cell phone camera with the intent of taking an indecent picture. "Without knowing who the person was, he anticipated that this person would soon be undressing," a police news release said. A judge ordered Vestal to perform three days of community service and placed him on six months' probation. Hatley had been in Jackson on May 5 for an appearance with a local civic organization.

why was this girl in a tanning bed anyway. just say no to tanning! (NT) -- No name, 13:07:35 05/25/12 Fri She was there because when you're an adult you do as you please. The question should be why was this pervert trying to take a photo of her.. (NT) -- No name, 14:02:38 05/25/12 Fri Obviously when you are an adult, you cannot do however you please. The fact that this man was jailed is proof of that. However, what I think you mean to say is that when you are an adult, you can do whatever you please as long as it's not criminal. That being said, I think this guy is an utter douche and you know he's done this before. The punishment definitely does not fit the severity of the crime, and I wish he had been put in jail for A LOT LONGER than 24 hours. (NT) -- HungryCollegeStudent, 15:31:51 05/25/12 Fri Hatley had requested that he be remanded for treatment and community service I read online today. (NT) -- No name, 15:43:03 05/25/12 Fri Sometimes you just need a good base tan! (NT) -- No name, 14:38:43 05/25/12 Fri A base tan? A base tan offers you literally no protection from sun damage. A base tan just means you're closer to skin cancer before you do what your base tan intended to protect you from. (NT) -- No name, 18:23:39 05/25/12 Fri It's this sort of mentality that really gets me upset. The very fact that you only stated a negative comment against the crime VICTIM and not the perpetrator is another reason why our society is the way that it is. She did NOTHING wrong, got it, NOTHING, this pervert on the other hand needs to have his face plastered everywhere as a perv or made to stand on the street corner wearing a sign stating so. His crime will disappear and most likely he will do it again. (NT) -- No name, 15:08:39 05/25/12 Fri the damage done by the bed is far worse than the damage done by this man. but i do think the man should go to jail and not counseling. (NT) -- No name, 15:54:41 05/25/12 Fri That is not for YOU to decide for Hatley. Last I checked it was still a FREE country. (NT) -- No name, 16:55:33 05/25/12 Fri Who are you to say this?

Subject: I'm reaching out today for one of our pageant sisters. Sara Choi (who was a Junior Miss the same year as me, Erika Hebron, Katie Stam and others) is competing in Miss California in exactly a month, but two weeks ago she lost her home in a four alarm fire. Sara has been in a burn unit seeking treatment but I believe she is finally home. I'm trying to rally the troops to help her with the dresses, shoes and talent outfits that were damaged in the fire, but one thing she lost that she needs are interview tapes from current pageants or recent Miss America competitions. If anyone has anything that she can borrow between now and the Miss California pageant, please shoot me an email at: ksmart@axispromo.com

yes (NT) -- No name, 20:36:38 05/22/12 Tue yes they still drop high & low score (NT) -- No name, 20:38:17 05/22/12 Tue I know that all final ballot scores count, but !) do they drop high and low composite scores, and 2) do they drop high and low finals night? (NT) -- No name, 21:02:18 05/22/12 Tue Answer #1: NO Answer #2: YES -- , 12:04:01 05/23/12 Wed High and Low scores in the composite scoring ARE dropped. It says so on the composite ballot. The high and low would have to be dropped because they are part of the final night talent, EW, and SS scoring and the high and lows are dropped there. It is only on the Final Ballot where the highs and lows are not dropped. (NT) -- No name, 22:06:53 05/25/12 Fri Political ranking system needs to be eliminated; high-low scores would not matter then - highest overall scorer should win pageant. Judges "manipulate" the scores with the current system; don't be fooled! (NT) -- No name, 13:07:55 05/23/12 Wed And judges would manipulate a system without the elimination of high and low scores as well.

I competed in both systems. The MUO wants to know more about the girl. They want to know who she is, what she likes, what her perfect date would be, what's important to her, etc. The MAO cares about that stuff, but also cares about the girls' opinion on current events and the world around her (NT) -- No name, 17:28:24 05/24/12 Thu Cool. (NT) -- No name, 22:58:00 05/24/12 Thu Would love to hear more comments from you concerning the differences and similarities of the programs, as you discovered in your competitions. (NT) -- No name, 20:17:37 05/25/12 Fri MAO- Please try to go with the times and webcast the Preliminaries this year. ITS TIME! (NT) -- fan, 21:03:15 05/23/12 Wed Operator error? Did they hire someone's paper boy to videotape? What professional photographer is going to mess up something like this? I take it that's why there are no DVDs of the preliminaries as well (NT) -- No name, 09:59:20 05/24/12 Thu MAO doesn't hire anyone. They expect everyone to work for free. They believe it's an honor to work for the MAO, and they don't feel they have to pay. This time the videographer apparently didn't know what he/she was doing. and now it makes the MAO look pretty bad. Not only do they not pay you, but they expect you to pay your own airfare and accommodations. It's really a joke. (NT) -- truth, 15:12:52 05/24/12 Thu Did DC and NC make the top ten? If not, odd they made the interview dvd. I know Miss NC has a very strong talent. (NT) -- No name, 10:48:06 05/24/12 Thu Interview dvd is always random girls - usually Miss A but not always the rest of the top 5 or top 10 (NT) -- No name, 10:52:55 05/24/12 Thu Actually, it's always always Miss America, non-finalist interview, and three of the top 10 or 5. It's rare that a girl is on there randomly. I'm guessing Miss NC had a strong interview (NT) -- No name, 13:29:09 05/24/12 Thu Miss DC won non-finalist interview (NT) -- So that's why, 13:27:34 05/24/12 Thu In the top 5, I wonder why AZ was chosen over NY. I really wanted to see NY's interview. IMO, I think NY's OSQ was better than AZ's. But that's just me. (NT) -- No name, 16:14:12 05/24/12 Thu I don't remember NY's onstage question, but in her regular interviews, she doesn't come across as genuine. Maybe that happened in interview too (NT) -- No name, 17:29:29 05/24/12 Thu I wish it was the Top 5 in interview on the DVD. I am really curious to see NY's interview since she placed so high. (NT) -- No name, 20:19:38 05/24/12 Thu I watched the video and personally I thought Laura's, AZ, and DC's interviews were good. The other two were not as impressive. Laura clearly won in her interview. She was very engaging. (NT) -- Joyful, 22:34:16 05/24/12 Thu Thank you. (NT) -- No name, 22:58:22 05/24/12 Thu Did Betty Thompson make the video? (NT) -- sweet lady=), 23:58:46 05/24/12 Thu Yes she did. I'm sure OK's interview was probably one of the best on the DVD (NT) -- No name, 05:40:43 05/25/12 Fri We have known her for a long time and she is truely a beautiful young lady (NT) -- inside and out=) Happy for her success!, 10:24:45 05/25/12 Fri If you haven't seen her interview, thinking she probably is the best is meaningless. (NT) -- No name, 13:21:18 05/25/12 Fri Thanks for your input! I'm glad Laura had an awesome interview. My question is: How was the picture quality of the DVD???????? (NT) -- No name, 05:45:46 05/25/12 Fri The quality of the video was fine. Kris Jenner didn't have a mic in one of the interviews if I recall correctly though. As for Betty, although she is adorable I found her interview very rehearsed especially in comparison to Laura. It also seemed as if Lara Spencer wasnt particularly taken with her. (NT) -- Joyful, 17:43:45 05/25/12 Fri When you work with the VERY best interview strategist in the country you win interview and become Miss America. Nuff said!!! (NT) -- No name, 20:06:20 05/25/12 Fri No one knows who won interview (NT) -- No name, 20:54:27 05/25/12 Fri They wont post any of the first 12 interviews in the first group because it was a DISASTER by the judges, none of them made the 15 (NT) -- No name, 11:01:12 05/24/12 Thu The judging was completely messed up this year! (NT) -- No name, 13:19:36 05/24/12 Thu Hope we have the same judges for Miss America 2013. They got us a superb Miss America 2012! (NT) -- No name, 14:57:14 05/24/12 Thu Really? I liked to Top 10 and Top 5. There were a few states I had hoped would make it, but didn't get through the first cut but overall the end result was worthwhile - a beautiful and gracious Miss America. I really want to see her interview. (NT) -- No name, 20:29:55 05/24/12 Thu DC was one of the first 12 interviews. (NT) -- No name, 07:57:35 05/25/12 Fri Quality has been pretty bad in the past so this must be truly awful (NT) -- Katie Harman's year was a bad tape, 14:53:01 05/24/12 Thu Is the quality of the video, both production and content, worth the $45.00? I'm thinking of ordering it to help with my interview (NT) -- No name, 10:19:03 05/25/12 Fri
