Nikki, I don’t remember your ears being that large and what is that sign they are making you wear?

Those that know Nikki should also beware of her sometimes-allergy to oranges. Rumor has it her lips will swell, shortness of breath will occur, and four paramedics (that arrive in an ambulance) will ask her to lift her shirt.

I think her problem of “designing big” was stemmed from using Quark 9.
