“Jughead” Jones in the _Archie_ comics.

Hmm. Just thinking out loud… we now have 20 DQs answered. I can’t think of any living Australian women, first name starting with “J,” who fit these answers. Anyone else?

I guess we can’t ask anymore DQs since you already have answered 20 questions.

The first one I was referring to Jessica Origliasso (never heard of Jan Wilson) and the second one Jennifer Hawkins.

I don’t know anybody else that fits the criterias.
