Default Anne, thank goodness you're safe!

I have been watching some of the rescue efforts and have seen the devastation among your countrymen.

Sometimes a girl just needs a laugh, so when I saw that you were rescued, I got a little giggle.

It's nice to find something to smile about in all this horror. Thank you.

BTW, since when do you need anyone to make you do anything?

For those who have no idea what AMN is talking about, here's a video clip. : http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread77375.html

They named her Sam, and she's famous around the world now! The volunteer fireman giving her the drink had his daughter there. She filmed the koala to show her friends, and the rest is history.

Aw our sweet little Koala. I'm glad you're safe.


Ya know, I always pictured you differently. You're sure a cutie!

Thanks! I couldn't remember if it was Bob or Sam...50/50 shot and I guessed wrong! LOL!

Great story! I heard from Jenni. She's ok! So good to hear from her!

I must admit it is a cute photo of little Sam. They're selling that photo now and all proceeds from the sales will go to the survivors.

Thank you for letting us know that Ziggy is safe. It's so good to do a head count and know that all are safe....... so far.
