I am totally subscribing to this. one of my favorite things on the Dope is when someone descibes something with only the vaguest of details and almost always we someone comes along and nails it.

Movies, books, authors, comedians, actors, athletes, music, cities, bugs, foods, brands, sports.

I’m hoping we can add a new one to the list.

(Then someone can say, “Aha! I nailed her!”)

Welcome to the Straight Dope, guy who just posted. I think there’s something called the “two-link rule” here which your post seems to be in violation of.

That was just a spam link. He’s been wished away to the cornfield.

Just because they skipped foreplay doesn’t mean they’re in a hurry.

Asking for their drivers license is usually helpful.

Wow… in some sort of Rainman kind of way, I think I recall her name from the cover of some European movie back in about 1993 that a friend had in college.

You nailed it, I think … Gina Colany. Just a six year wait and there’s your answer!
