Hey you guys
First of all I want to thank all of you for this great game.I enjoyed every bit of it.
I played a socially,strategically,physically balanced game.
I made a solid alliance that I stuck with till the end.
Although Jaime betrayed me and voted Brady out,I stayed loyal to her and I picked her as the third finalist
I won 3 Challenges,I was doing my best in most of the challenges and always came close.
I also won a HII in the auction and I used it in the merge because this was the most important tc,the one where you know who is with you and who is not
I played this game with all my heart
And I'm sorry if I hurt any of you in the game,I really didn't mean to
Finally feel free to ask me as many questions as you like
Thanks

Drum roll please.....

*drums begins to start*

Ladies and Gents....spectators, members of the jury, the moment you have all been waiting for!

CHICKEN!!!

Bawk bawk...you are too kind Mr. Announcer guy. *bows*

So I just flew in from LA, boy are my arms tired!

*ca-chink of the drums*

Anyway enough of the playing lets get down to business. I would first like to say that this has been a great game and I have had a great time here with my lovely two ladies, Mander and Jaime. Speaking of which they played excellent games and I'm proud that we got here together, I like how things played out.

I played this game to the best of my ability, tried to win when I needed to, manipulated when I needed to, and above all I outplayed, outwitted, and outlasted the competition.

Isn't that the key to Survivor?

I am not going to go into much detail since I will reserve that for the questioning. But all that I ask is to hear everyone out before your mind is made up and don't be a bitter jury.

I enjoyed something about each of you and that is all I have to say for now.

Have a bawk bawk day.

Chicken...out!

I wanted to first say how much I have enjoyed playing this game with all of you.

I made an conscious effort from the beginning to get to know every one of you; naturally I came to know some more then others based on circumstances. That being said, I learned from all of you, have regrets with some of you and wished I could have gotten to know some of you better or just differently.

I gave everything I had in both tribes I was in, was aggressive in challenges, found the hidden immunity idol while still on Zhan Hu and was the only player in the game to use an original HII. I won individual immunity 3 times, and also knew when to step out gratefully.

My strategy in addition to above was to always be as honest as I could, though we all know that is not possible throughout the entire game. I stepped up and made decisions even when they were difficult and as a result did outwit and outlast.

I want end by saying I look forward to your questions and being able to answer anything for you. Congrats again to all of us for making it to jury and final 3 out of 32. This has been a good time.
