  • AH! Finally blogger will cooperate and let me comment. Thanks a Ton Blair and Michelle for posting this. Of course we know Bren has a great body and whatnot, but this side of his personality is what really makes me melt. Its so great to see him give his time and he seems to truly care about this charity.
