she's a cutie

Posted by pfresh85 (Member # 8085) on :

Agreed, she is.

Posted by Art Vandelay (Member # 8690) on :

I thought you were going here.

Both are good.

There's too much Whedon in the air not to have gone for the Buffy tie-in...

Posted by Paul Goldner (Member # 1910) on :

My roommate went on a date once with her...

Posted by Olivet (Member # 1104) on :

She used to be sorta Mormon, though I'm guess not so much anymore...

Posted by Speed (Member # 5162) on :

She's also Albanian. Since my wife is Albanian, and Eliza is one of four famous people we know with direct Albanian ancestry, we tend to keep track of them. It's even more rare in celebrities than Mormonism. [Smile]

I loved her in Bring It On.

Posted by Olivet (Member # 1104) on :

Really?One of my best buddies in Chicago is Albanian. Well, her father was an Albanian with some Turkish ancestry (his coloring was dark)and her mother was an ethnic Albanian born in Turkey (she was very fair).

I spent quite a lot of time at their house, when we lived in Chicago. They were Muslim, though. I bet Mormon Albanians are fairly rare, too. [Wink]

She is quite hot, but I never really cared for her in Buffy. Does that make me weird?

You bet right. My wife was one of the first 50 Mormon converts in the country. She was also raised Muslim like the majority of Albanians, although after 50 years of Communism, most people don't know much more about their religion than its name.

Then again, Mother Theresa is Albanian, and they named their international airport after her, so there is at least a little religious tolerance.

Oh, yeah. My friends (The Avdylis) explained to me all about the different kinds of Muslims. They were fairly religious (we had to go outto eat before sundown during Ramadan(sp?) and stuff like that), but there were no veils or anything.

The funniest thing, to me, was that Nurdan was this devout Muslim (27 year old virgin) who was blonde and vivacious and absolutely gorgeous... but absolutely cursed like a sailor. At work. To clients on the phone. It was like the curses were meaningless words to her.

Probably they were, since her family spoke Turkish and Albanian at home, exclusively (unless I was there -- then they would try to keep in English for politeness' sake).

Being with them was the most fun I had in Chicago, really.

Don't you mean after sundown?

Posted by Olivet (Member # 1104) on :

Yeah, duh. I mean, I guess. I just remember time constraints.

I didn't find Faith's character as attractive as most guys, I just don't go for that kind of girl.

I've never seen a Buffy episode. I have no idea what the character is like, but Eliza Dushku is seriously hot [Smile]
