Above is my latest art work. I'm calling it Moon Over Sacramento WOO HOO! I LOVE SURVIVOR!! - have watched since the first season! I've Only missed one season due to living in the mountains with no cable or satellite. Some seasons are more memorable than others for me. My faves from seasons past are: Ozzy, Richard Hatch, Stephanie, Rupert, Ozzy, Yul, Yau-man, Ozzy, Amanda, James & did I say Ozzy? I've always said..... Survivor should have taped several shows before airing the first one - they could've prolonged the element of surprise with the "survivors" for at least 3 seasons if not more! There's nothing like the effect of surprise and it would have given the audience a chance to watch the next season survivors (knowing the rules & strategies of the game) while the players didn't! This past season Survivor Micronesia was one of the best in a long time. It's gonna be tough to beat next season. I am a true fan of Survivor and even though I don't always agree with who wins I will ALWAYS watch this magnificently, well thought out, "social experiment" game. I think Mark Burnett is a genius. It would be nice though to see some more theme games like perhaps young against old. I'm female, single 50 years young...and mother of 3 beautiful CATS! Pippin, Tigerbean and Boo Radley!! 12-8-08 update: Sadly I lost my Tigerbean in November due to cancer. He is waiting for us in a meadow by a stream with lots of birds and field mice. 8-13-09 update: Now I have lost my beloved Pippin who was the apple of my eye and meant the world to me.... My moto is: "Whatever you vividly imagine, ardently desire, sincerely believe and enthusiastically act upon.....shall inevitiably come to pass!!" I truly believe in the power of the positive thinking. (I just wish I could do it more often!) I am a budding graphic artist and joined in the masthead design contest. I did not win but had alot of fun doing it - my design is below ******************************** MY BELOVED PIPPIN My darling baby girl, my kitty whom I loved and thought of as my daughter, passed away. She gave me 13 years of joy, comfort, fun, hairballs & most importantly UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! I am devasted and my heart hurts very badly, I don't know how I'm going to get through this. She has been the SOLE source of comfort for me especially this past year. A year of difficult events. First Mom, then Tigerbean, then one of my longest & enduring friend's sudden death. And now, I will never get to see her waiting for me with baited breath when I come home, or the cute little way she would stick her paw out & meow when she wanted me to hold her - never again. It was very unexpected - she suddenly became sick last week. After 3 trips to the vet - she wasn't responding to treatment, we realized there was no hope, I held her in my arms when the doctor put her to sleep. My wonderful vet was very kind and sweet and gentle. He even cried with me and all the employees hugged me when it was over. It was real nice of them to spend 2 hours with me and no charge. They gave Pippin, oxygen and morphine and I held her and talked to her for an hour. They would come in periodically and talk to her too. I don't know why it came to me but when it was time, I recalled a scene from "Out of Africa" when Karen Von Blixen and her faithful assistant Farrah are saying goodbye. she reminded him that when they went on safari he would go ahead in the daytime to find a place for them and build a fire. At night she would see the fire and come to the camp. I told Pippin: "Do you remember when we went on Safari? and in the daytime, I would go ahead and find a place to camp & build a fire. (at this point my Vet understood what I was saying and started to choke up) And you would see the fire and come to this place? Well, this will be like that. Only this time you will be the one to go ahead and find a place for us. And you must make a really big fire so I can find you." Thanks for listening. ***** ***Pippin-n-Me Xmas 2008 **************** Pippin 2007 ****************** Tigerbean 1997-2008 Pippin's son ********************* She was so tiny for her age at 13 she was less than half the size of her babies Boo & the Bean in the background ************ Boo and Tigerbean 2007 ************* Tried to get Boo to look into only time he faced camera **************************************************the camera he closed his eyes instead!
