Very sad to see that Celebrity Chef Anne Burrell passed away this week at the age of 55. I have been a fan of the Food Network and all of their past and present chefs, and this one hit hard. She was always funny and entertaining on shows such as “Worst Cooks in America,” as well as being an excellent chef. It is very heartwarming and moving to see all the tributes from fellow Food Network Chefs. It really shows how much of a community and friendship they have for each other. Rest in Peace, Anne Burrell, you and your spikey white hair will be missed

You all know I am a huge fan of Survivor, as well as the other CBS shows “The Amazing Race” and “Big Brother”. I consider these the best and feel most other reality shows simply do not compare. I tried watching “The Traitor” (Season 2). But once Dan Geesling and Parvity Shallow were eliminated, I quickly lost interest and have not watched since. Then I tried “Deal or No Deal Island”. I was confused on how things even worked, and I lasted one episode. I never even made it far enough to see Will Kirby (One of the greatest Reality show players of all time). I have tried many shows and not really piqued my interest. Either there is too much emphasis on relationships, or the rules and challenges just aren’t interesting. But I have to say, I am really enjoying “The Snake” on Fox. A simple concept of challenges and then voting people out. Depending on how things go, there could be some interesting gameplay and strategies. I have watched the first two episodes and am actually looking forward to the next one

Also, a while back, I decided to go back and watch all 6 seasons of LOST. I have completed Seasons 1 and 2, and I had forgotten how great a show this was. I also forgot a lot of what happened, and it’s been interesting as bits and pieces come back to me. You have to remember that LOST was on Network TV (ABC) and back when it aired, Seasons were 20 Episodes, so 6 Seasons is around 120 Episodes.

Inkworks did put out a few sets of LOST Trading Cards (before they went out of business).

I got this off the internet. I will go through some of my Promo Card binders when I have some time and post some more of the Promo Cards that were released. This was one of the sets that got me into Promo Card Collecting

Time flies when you’re having fun (or when you are at Starbucks updating a blog). I find it easier to write out and about than sitting at home in my office. Looking forward to writing some more soon

Looks like the weather is going to be nice going forward, so will hopefully find some time to get out and a round and take some mental notes on things that would be interesting to write about
