Best Place to Jog: Elizabeth / Plaza-Midwood Neighborhoods. Because of the trees, the variety of scenery and friendly people. Lots of sidewalks and surprises.
Best Celebrity Hairdo: Hope Nichols (owner of Boris & Natasha; entrepreneur, producer, musician). Hope's hair is like a psychedelic Medusa but it won't turn you to stone... she makes you happy instead!
Charlotte's Sexiest Woman: (tie) 1. Linda Minor (my wife): She's got great style, real smarts, knows the meaning of love (friendship), an awesome mom and fantastic lover! 2. Shannon Wiseman ("Miss Winston"): Great looks, body & moves with a good rockin' energy that says, "Let's have fun!" 3. Jade Wills, BellaBella Makeup and Design artist: As an artist, Jade knows which "look" can make any woman sexy. She herself is beautiful, exotic and adventuresome, loves life and puts you at ease. 4. Tera Schulz, modern dancer: Because of her youth, weird cool look/style, extraordinary physical facility, onstage presence and sense of the unusual.
Best Video Store: VisArt. Most complete, alternative and unusual selection; not a corporate superfranchise. Funky but accessible labyrinth store layout; awesome community board and film notes; encourages participation; good rates.
