Ugly Betty to lose her braces?

If you watch the show Ugly Betty on ABC, you know that Betty, played by America Ferrera (gotta love that name) wears braces. In fact, they are her trademark. Apparently, as the series comes to an end this year, Betty will have her braces removed.

The actress/orthodontist tasked with the removal will be actress Kathy Najimy according to Entertainment Weekly. The magazine also reports that Najimy will play an important role in an episode that has an It’s a Wonderful Life-esque fantasy subplot. Najimy's character will serve as the guardian angel who shows Betty what life would have been like had she been blessed with perfect choppers.

A Winter Wonderland

In Austin, rarely does it snow, and if it does, it doesn't ever snow enough to make a snowman. No Frosty in these parts. Until yesterday. With up to three inches of snow in many parts of the Austin area, it was a Winter Wonderland for kids and their parents. There were more than a few snowmen standing tall in the front yards of Austinites.

One snowmen in particular caught our attention. Okay, it wasn't so much a random snowman, but a snowman created by the son of one of our former employee's that was adorned in attire that would make any orthodontist proud.

We present to you the "Official Buckman Orthodontics Snowman."

Hope everyone had a great day!
