Yeah, that's her. I never saw the movie, though.

[FreedomSurge]

About one half less 3% of the FR population cares. She is very hot.

[yarddog]

Well she is pretty. What else about her is interesting?

[MikefromOhio]

Re #7

Unfortunately, there are many who insist that she is lame. To them, martial art's angle is the only thing relevant.:-)

[WarPaint]

No no... it's flying people, hidden wires

[Shaka]

Hey crouching tiger...meet crouching horny toad! :))))

We need to put this is in the babe of the freep day forum!!

[yarddog]

I don't care much for the martial arts films but I do appreciate beauty. She looks a little like the actress who plays Lana Lang on "Smallville".

We used to get around 50 Japanese students every Summer at a place I worked during college. I always thought Oriental girls were sort of plain but every now and then there would be a real looker.

I can see from the photo that she's really wishing she could be with me.

Every evening they would call plaintively for Mothra. Motthaaraaa.

Actually they would usually get together around midnight at the athletic field and sit in a circle smoking cigarettes which weren't allowed otherwise.

From the record I have, it sounds like they are singing "Mo-su-ra"

[weegee]

"COMING, MOTHER!!!"
