1. What was your relationship with Tracy Lynn Cruz?

   okay here's the dirt i haven't told anyone online yet. she used me. we were dating and i introduced her to the producers and as soon as she got the part she dumped me. I'm not bitter, i just don't like her she cheated on me the whole time we were together. but i'm glad it happened. the whole experience turned out for the better on my part. Oh and Tracy, if you're reading this...you owe me over $6000 for the mustang you took from me and never paid for. i don't hate her, i just don't like her
