This year's Rocky is a woman in stilettos!  Who can forget Julia Roberts's Oscar-winning performance as the flamboyant and headstrong legal assistant in the movie Erin Brockovich?  Erin's investigation into the PG&E toxic waste sites brought justice and financial reward to the residents of several California communities whose water supply was polluted.  Here, she pulls away from her mound-high paper-filled desk and tells A&U that she is a shopaholic, hates her freckles, and likes to cuss up a storm!
