energy….wow…wow…so much energy…..anyone who meets ann will feel this blast of energy in a split second…and you had better hang on, because this woman is moving at the speed of light….and, in my opinion, for the purest reasons of better communication….. for those of you in europe, south america, asia and africa you may not …
