    Hi, Annie. I just wanted to tell you what a big fan I am of yours. I play Texas Hold’em and hold my own, but nothing like you. Also, you were definitely robbed by Joan Rivers. That wretched old witch! I think the “fix” was in. There is no way she beat you. Hello again, from a great big fan. Regards, Linda Pearl

    Hi Annie,
    I have been meaning to email you regarding the fix that was in for you on Celebrity Apprentice. Donald Trump had to change the rules from last years Celebrity show so he could make Joan Rivers win. But, She lost and everyone knows it. You kicked her butt fair and square. I think you are a great role model for all females, especially single moms that work. I wish you received more air time on the TV poker tournaments, I hardly get to see you play. You are a great champ keep up your winning ways. I love playing poker, just wish I was better. I joined UB since you are on there, I love your tips and Blog.
    Fondly,

    Joan

    Congratulations on continuing to give a darn about the world around us. You are fortunate to be in a position to be able to do so much good … and caring to do it!

    Perhaps, you will enjoy this Michael Jackson collection from YouTube. You seem like a person who might be totally capable of seeing and feeling the positive side of the things he did and attempted to do.
