"We Ain't Come to Play School"

Chris, of Ontario, Canada, says, "Hi, Jimmy. I've never e-mailed you before because you've done a great job putting up fantastic LLODs. But last night I watched Man On A Ledge and it starred Genesis Rodriguez. You must feature her, she definitely deserves LLOD honors!" Adam Johnson, of Arlington, Virginia, says, "So I just watched Casa de mi Padre, an entirely underrated movie that is essentially Will Ferell in a Monty Python movie, co-directed by Robert Rodriguez. A must-see for sure. Anyway, part of what made it a must-see was the absolutely spectacularly gorgeous Genesis Rodriguez. If you've never made her your Lovely Lady of the Day, what the hell is wrong with you? If you have, I don't see her every day, and for that, what the hell is wrong with you? Right this wrong!" Of course, I'm on top of things and Genesis has gotten LLOD honors not once, but twice. Today will give her the hat trick.
