To Ashlanders, Jen Moss is simply known as the "Naked Lady." Most recently, however, she is not only making news for her revealing pasties and strange habits, but also for her desire to sue the city of Ashland for not allowing her to participate with a group of 10 people in Ashland's noteworthy Fourth of July Parade--only wearing a G-string, rollerblades and a smile.

Depending on who you are there is some good news and some bad news about Hancock.
If you love superhero movies like The Incredible Hul¬k--where the traditional comic book structure of hero defeats super villain, finds romance and battles inner turmoil remains untouched¬--then you will most likely be disappointed by Hancock.
