What happens when you put 211 Survivor Contestants and their guests, media, CBS employees, Mark, Jeff and David Burris plus many of the people who make Survivor such an amazing and successful show, all total of 1001 together with, great food, ever flowing drinks and loud music. ??

I sooo know what it feels like to be an ever hopeful Survivor Wannabe. I would have given my eye teeth or even maybe even my first born (sorry Tonya) to have met a Survivor to talk to. Never did. THAT is why I will always go and cruise the line at open casting calls to encourage, chat with and even entertain the hopefuls.

Maybe this entry should be titled “Russell was soooo pissed” What a sore loser, thus what a loser. CBS made Samoa the Russell show because I think it needed a bang up season for future contacting and they go it.

What do you get when you have 26 Reality Stars on the Beach Walk at Mission Beach cheering on 5000 walkers doing the 60 mile walk for the Susan Koman Cancer fund?

Steve Messineo is the director of All Access Physical Therapy in Shrewsbury Mass. and he wrote about my experiences in Gabon – after getting booted – when I tore my rotator cuff and had some decisions to make.

Cindy, my “double” (check her out in that album on my Facebook ) that I met at the Barona casting call asked me to come and talk at her Carlsbad/ Oceanside Toast Masters group and what fun that was. When I arranged it with her I was thinking that this would be the first group that would hear me talk and actually be thinking “how” I talked and evaluating every word I uttered. How funny will that be……

Never in a million years did I ever think I would be “sold” or even bid on. Well, I was, it was such a fun brunch gathering and all for a great cause.
