Is this photo retouched at all?

yeah, i run all the images i use through a curves, saturation, and resize filter.

I know how she got that scar.....its a sad story, thats why she doesn't tell it...so I will keep the secret....

I nominate Ze Frank for the SNL anchor desk. Hell, for that matter, he should have been installed at CBS.

Fey and Dratch will be back on SNL by Halloween. Their new show has Tracy Morgan in it. "Nuff said.

Yeah, it has a certain look to it different from the original.. looks like slide film from 30 years ago.

I saw Tina Fey in real life once. She was hot.

So anyone else know how Fey got that scar and isn't annoying like syntax99? "Tee-hee I have a secret!"

I heard she was kidnapped as a small child (seriously) and her scar had something to do with that.

Anyone else have anything to add?

Hey C.H.U.M.P., its not like that, its just she entrusted someone with the truth and ask for it not to get out. Thats all. But I will say Tim N. is pretty darn close to the truth...

Thanks Tim. And Syntax, nice of you to draw attention to yourself yet again. You're a great friend.

If you didn't intend to say anything, why post that you know it the first place? Because you're an attention-whore.

Whatever dude, I am so cool! Don't make me mad, I might get up and get out of my moms basement apartment and miss Everybody Loves Raymond to come find you!
