(Here is a picture of Me and My Husband Bob at my son's wedding)

1. How long have you been a Club Pogo member? I have been a club pogo member since April 21, 1999.

2. If you can change one thing on Pogo what would that be? I would lower the cost and also have more gems on the spinner.

3. How many Pogo badges do you have? I have 1082 Badges as of right now.

4. Who introduced you to Pogo? My youngest son introduced me to Pogo and now he doesn't play any more.

5. If you could offer more choices for Pogo Tokens, what would they be? My choices would be to pay for all or part of your membership. Also buy gems with your tokens.

6. Who is your most favorite pogo character and why? I really don't have a favorite pogo character because I like mostly all of them.

7. Do you play Pogo for the badges or just for the fun of it? I play for both fun and badges.

8. What is your favorite new game on Pogo? My favorite new game is Yahtzee and Beaker Creatures and a few others.

9. What is the first thing you do when you log into PogoAddiction? When I log on, I first check my mail, then any new posts and then I check the calendar.

10. How did you hear about PogoAddiction? I heard about it from one of the PA members, I don't know who, when I was in a pogo game room. It has only been a year since I have been a PA member.

11. What was your favorite PA contest? My favorite PA contest is the Weekly Badge Unscrambler, the Quickie contests and I like all the rest of the contests. They are all exciting.

12. What one bit of advice would you give to newer PA members? I would tell them to read all the posts and if there is still a problem or question, ask any PA member and we would gladly help them.

13. What do you do in your free time? I play pogo games, paint pictures on slate, I do other crafts, watch TV and ride my bike.

14. Who would you define as your Hero/Heroine...why? My hero would be my husband because he is patient, kind, understanding and loves to help others.

15. Do you have any pets? Yes, I have 2 cats who don't get along with each other. Sussie is black and white and our first cat. She is 5 years old and is the dominate cat. Callie is 1 year old calico cat. She is beautiful and doesn't like to fight with the other cat. We have to keep them is separate rooms.

16. You can do one thing to change the world, what is it? I would change the amount of money we all pay for Health Insurance and have the elected officials get less pay and give it to the poor who need it.

17. What is your favorite snack? My favorite snack is ice cream but I will eat anything that is made of chocolate, brownies, cookies, you name it , I will eat it.

18. A genie grants you 3 wishes. What do you wish for? My first wish would be to be rich. My second wish is to travel all over the world. and my third wish is to help all the people who are poor.

19. If you could take a trip to anywhere in the world, where would you go and why? I would like to go to the Caribbean because it looks so beautiful and the water is so green..

20. How would you describe yourself? I am a quiet short 63 year old lady. I have been happily married for 41 years to my husband Bob. I have had 3 beautiful children. My oldest (40) is married with 2 children. A boy 11 and a girl 7. I also have a daughter (36), married with 2 boys. A boy 9 and a boy 7. My youngest son is 29 and just got married in May of this year. I live in the country with my my husband and 2 cats. I used to work but now I don't. I am a lady of leisure. I like to play pogo on my computer and I also like to paint pictures on slate. I also do other kinds of crafts too. Sometimes I sell my pictures and everyone loves them. I call my self a perfectionist when it comes to my art work. I am pleased to be picked as the PA Member Spotlight.

FreddieB · « **Reply #28 on:** July 20, 2009, 02:16:42 PM »

How beautiful, Marie. I can see you like birds and flowers too. I will have to pay more attention at art fairs to see if someone is offering paintings on slate. That's a nice idea. Thank you for posting the pictures.

MJClark5 · « **Reply #29 on:** July 20, 2009, 02:56:00 PM »

Very nice Marie - I've seen things like these at craft fairs-- I personally have no artistic talent so I always admire it in people who have it!

Those are so beautiful Marie!! What wonderful talent you have!! Thank you so much for posting your artwork so that everyone can see!!
