First, I want to wish John E. (my fabulous, compassionate, web-designer friend) a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Ok... now... on the East Coast, it will begin at 8 pm, on the Fox network. If you missed it the 1st time, here's your chance. I am curious as to what 'new footage' they'll have in there...
Also, they've completed the bios on the Fox site. http://www.fox.com/joem/
For your convenience though, here's the Q & A cut and pasted--
What drove you to television to look for love?
Nothing 'drove' me to specifically look for love on television. I am simply a person who is open to new experiences and adventures, including meeting new people. And realistically, with a ratio of 1-20 (which I knew going into the show), the odds were not in my favor for love. The odds were favoring Evan.
What is the most important thing you feel you need to achieve in life?
The most important thing I feel I need to achieve in life is to utilize, share, and expand upon the talents, knowledge, and love that I have been blessed with.
Do your friends say you are "Crazy" "Neurotic" or "really interesting"?
I hope my friends would say that I was 'really interesting'... but they'd probably say I'm 'crazy'. But one can equal the other, no?
What is your most prized possession?
My most prized possession is my sanity. I could also say my health or my loved ones. Everything else can be replaced.
What is your best feature?
My best feature is my sense of humor, and I've got a little dimple you can see when I'm laughing.
If Evan had approached you in a bar and offered to buy you a drink
would you have accepted?
Would this be a bar on the show or a bar in real life? I suppose I'd chat with him for a bit.
What is your ideal man like?
My ideal man is someone intelligent, honest, well-mannered, kind, and considerate, with a good sense of humor and ambition and aesthetics... someone dynamic who I can travel and explore and learn with... and totally relax around. And of course, I have to be attracted to him.
What is your favorite color?
To wear, black; otherwise, either blue or red.
What is your favorite flower?
Heirloom roses or anything beautiful and fragrant, such as gardenias.
If you were to go out for dinner on the town, which type of food would you choose?
Seafood, or any fine dining. Just not Chinese, because my mom cooks it best.
What is your favorite cocktail to order at a bar?
Grey Goose Orange and club soda, or a dirty martini.
Please provide three adjectives that describe yourself.
Kind, Positive, Articulate

Hello- Hope you all were entertained by the show. I was... because when we left France we had no idea how it would be edited or how it would all look on camera. I had a great time watching it with the support of my friends and two of the other women- Alison and Zora [who won in the end]- in New York. Somehow the NY Post showed up, [but the resulting article is no longer on-line, sorry].
