Tim Draper has done everything. He’s ridden an elephant, dressed up as Captain America, has his own theme song, and now this. Wow. This totally makes up for not getting to meet Uma Thurman on the set of The Naked Brothers Band movie.

Tim and Tony Robbins--separated at birth.
Doesn't he know that the chances that you'll piss off a petite women by picking her up are about 99%? So much for his crush on Natalie. Plus, he's not smart enough for her ;)
Anyone who can pull off a role as well as Natalie did in Leon at age 12, gets my vote; probably regardless of what the ballot is for :-)
I always got the feeling she was extremely smart. Highly intelligent and petite = fiesty. All the right boxes as far as I'm concerned. OK, so I admit I'm just taking public therapy to confirm as the rest of the world, I have a slight crush on the young lady.
She's probably really nice and down to earth to go with her acting success ... Incredibly succesful people who are actually genuinly nice - You've gotta hate 'em.
The latest action: Sequoia keeps it in the family –The Indian arm of high-powered venture capital firm Sequoia Capital recently led a $7m round for Minglebox, an Indian social network. Minglebox is led by Kavita Iyer, the wife of one of the partners of Sequoia India.
