Most of us Twisters knew of Linda Bruce, and some of us were friends to her. Myself I knew of her. Thanks Gram for the flicker link. From the photos I could tell she loved Life and loved her work. It is rear for some people to love their work. As Balloon Artist we know the feeling you get from ballooning. It is a special gift that comes with a wonderful feeling of joy in our heart when we make balloons for others.
You have to ask yourself did you give others happiness and love, did you have a good life, There are some many people that rush around and not notice the good thing in life.
Take the time to enjoy the good people around you.  From the photos I know Linda had Joy, Love and Happiness throughout her life. The smiles in the pictures are proof of that. We will miss you Linda. See you in Heaven.Our Heart go out to all of Linda's' Loved Ones.

I just got my (Thunder Thighs by Bonnie Davis,) CD. I had never used a Balloon CD or DVD ever.
When I seen the Cover of the thunder thighs they looked so cute, I had to have it.
From my experience people/ Kids love cute balloons. The balloon figures are interchangeable, as in you could use the body style and add you own head. Don't get me wrong the figures are very nice & easy to remember as they are. A Must Have It CD

21, What are your balloon goals for the future?

My goals for the future are to go to more balloon conventions and compete and maybe teach a balloon twisting class. I would like to travel the world and twist along the way

22, If you could start all over again, would you change anything?

I would practice more. In the being I thought I was the best and didn't know there were balloon twister better then I. I realized a few years latter that there is way better twisters then I was. I would have gone to balloon jam way sooner.


23, How would you like the future of balloon modeling to develop?

I see the art becoming more competitive. Balloon modeling is developing into a more demanding art when it comes to creativity

24, Who's the most famous person you have made a balloon creation for?

I am not star stuck and I don't know of famous people, so I was told I made a balloon figure for the kids of the lady In the TV show Malcolm in the Medal  (the Mother)

25, How do you keep the enthusiasm going & what still excites you about our great world of latex

Well It's the fellowship of it all. When I go to a balloon jam everyone is sharing and giving advise. If the whole world got along like us Twisters we would be in Heaven.

26, What inspires or is your thought process in coming up with a new design

Other artist inspire me. I also get the balloon itch when I create new stuff. I get an image in my head and go from there. I usually start on the face then work on the body.    
 
27, Who would you like to work with dead or alive?

I have jammed with Jack Mattson, Ken Stillmen and Don and Laura Caldwell.
So it was brought to my attention of this guy that was cool to be around and was (is) a great accomplished twister and he started the same year I did in 1995.So I will have to wait till I get to Heaven. God Bless you David Grist.  

28, What makes you laugh?

Stupid little kid jokes make me laugh. Ohh !!  I should say little kids that tell stupid jokes.

Lets Play.  
I got my Thunder Thighs CD and I love them all. If you dont have it then get it.
Just had to play around with the Thunder Thighs Idiea. Came up with some green things?? [ You are not allowed to view this attachment ] 2greenbev.jpg[/attachment:2v6x86ub]
