Not sure I can help you IQ, but I'm pretty sure I can get a Full Tilt deal for the girl in your Avatar. Send me her phone #.

FCP:Before this train gets too far off the tracks, as Josh's agent (as well as DN's) I thought I'd jump in and give you the real info. The truth is Josh is taking some time off because his wife Angela just had their third baby (a girl) a few weeks ago. Mom and baby are doing great, but Josh wanted to spend the rest of the year in ATL with them.

I have worked very hard behind the scenes for a long time to make the release more player friendly. Its latest version (for the current season, which is not the release language used in the lawsuit) allows the WPT to use a player's image in 2 ways: (1) to promote the show in advertising, etc., (2) to use the actual footage from the show (the video) for basically whatever they want (i.e. dvd'
