Not the final four I had imagined, but still a worthy foursome! I'm going for Natalie!

Hi there, not sure how to contact you via email.
The historic Pickfair Studios in Hollywood is being demolished and we are trying to save it and make people aware of the situation. Please check out the facebook page created to help spread the word!!! Thank you!

I promise to write something up for the blog soon.
