MARISSA SUPPORT PAGE
Added a Marissa
Support Page where news, links and other assorted
things will be posted - Nora sent me the following news
from an entertainment site...they obviously don't know
what what we know...we've adopted Marissa so she has the
Xenaverse behind her...
Early Exit Predictions
Marissa Jaret Winokur
"She's cute and bubbly, but Winokur has one big problem;
the dreaded lack of fan base. No doubt she has the
endurance for the competition as a Tony Award-winning
Broadway sweetheart, but she has to appeal to TV viewers
early on to stick around. That will be hard to do."

including some of Lucy)

Angela has come up with a perfect Top 10 List for
David Letterman. Here is the list contributed by
Angela...I like it!
Top 10 Reasons why the D'Anna Biers Character will be
coming back to BattleStar Galactica!
10) Because Lucy Lawless fans will boost the shows
already good ratings.
9) To give the humans another Cylon to drool over.
8) Because she was unjustly boxed last season.
7) Because she plays evil & authority figures so well.
6) She looks great in tight clothing.
5) Her character has not found her green-eyed soul
mate yet.
4) Because there are a lot of Lucy Lawless fans who
would open a huge can of whoop-ass if she were
permanently boxed!
3) Because there is No Xena Movie in Sight!
2) Because we want more Cylon Threesomes!
1) Because Lucy Lawless is SO HOT!!!!!!

AUSXIP is joining in the Support Marissa on Dancing With
the Stars...I don't watch reality tv (Celebrity Duets
was my first and only reality tv show) and I don't give
blanket support to someone just because they are a
friend of Lucy's...BUT this time I will. Having met
Marissa on my last trip, I was very impressed and she is
one hell of a talented woman.. So based on that and not
because she's Lucy's friend...I'm breaking my 'no

Alison Robb is undertaking a 7-day,

make a world of difference in the lives of people living
with HIV and AIDS:
Here's the info:
Some
of you may know me having seen me at various Xena
conventions or other events I am on a lot of e-mail
lists too, but mostly I lurk and don't have much to say.
So I am trying something different and out of my comfort
zone.
I have signed up for an adventure of a lifetime. From
June 1-7, 2008, I'm bicycling in AIDS/LifeCycle 7. It's
a 7-day, 545-mile bike ride from San Francisco to Los
Angeles to make a world of difference in the lives of
people living with HIV and AIDS.
Last year I did this ride for the first time, it was one
of the best experiences of my life. Much like the
Xenaverse I have made friends for a lifetime. Many of
the new friends are living with HIV and AIDS and are
members of the Positve Pedalers. I ride for and with
them and for people I have lost along the way.
In the last couple of weeks I have taken this ride a
step further, I began training to be a 'TRL' or Training
Ride Leader. This means when I pass all my training I
can start to lead my own training rides and prepare
riders for the actual ride.
If this ride sounds familiar the predecessor of this
ride was written about in SX Meagher's I Found My Heart
in San Francisco series.
