Sue Wyshynski
“I gulped. But, I mean, everyone bends the truth sometimes to be friendly. What's really weird is that I'm the only one who seems to get in trouble for it. Anyway, what could possibly go wrong this time?”
Sue Wyshynski, Poser

Jack Freestone
“I enjoy watching the World Surf League coverage. But perhaps it should be more accurately named the Freemason Surf League. It is certainly a good way to observe an exhibition of Freemason hand signals by the live presenters.”
Jack Freestone
