"I hang with young
people, and hanging with young people, they’ll make you young.
I'm uh, a pretty basic simple person. Um, you know, nothing real
special. A mom, married for 30 years, slept with the same man for 30
years. I love my Cincinnati. Cincinnati, um, is a great place to raise
family, we have all kinds of culture. We have, uh, you know, museums,
and tall stacks, we have the river there. Uh, we have the best of,
uh, you know, Kentucky being right there. My husband works in Kentucky.
Uh, you know, the libraries. There's so much culture there, and
so much history being there on the river." |

Blows poster queencityfan posts some weight-loss info on Lillian:
RE: S7 Contestant Lillian Morris
"... Lillian had
a definite and noticeable weight loss, 30 to 35 pounds. As she
doesn't look all that big in the photos this could be important
spoiling evidence." |

New-ish
Realiiity.com poster frialdad_una makes the following claim about Lillian:
Two interesting tidbits
I have come across two pieces of information about Survivor. I
have a source close to the show who tells me that Lillian Morris
was still in the game as late as Day 18, perhaps later. |

Tri-stater makes
new 'Survivor'
"A Boy Scout leader from Warren County is one of the 16 players who
will vie for $1 million on the seventh edition of the CBS reality show
Survivor: Pearl Islands, debuting Sept. 18. Dressed in a Scout
leader's uniform, Lillian Morris, 51, introduced herself in a taped
clip on the CBS Early Show this morning
by saying, 'I'm the proud Scoutmaster of Boy Scout Troop 617 in
Cincinnati, Ohio.'
The only previous local player on the highly rated reality series has
been Rodger Bingham, the Crittenden, Ky., farmer/teacher who finished
fifth in the Outback version, which aired in the spring of 2001.
Morris's troop covers the Kings Mill/Landen area in Warren Country
according to Andy Swallow, director of marketing for the Dan Beard
Council. 'She's been a good leader and is well known in that
area,' Swallow said. 'She welcomes all into her troop and is well loved
by the
families she works with there.'
It's not known if Morris was one of nearly 1,000 people who lined up
last February at Newport on the Levee for an open casting call. Producers
had said they held the rare open audition here as a way to give tri-state
residents a chance to make the show. It was seen as a reward for the
area, which has been the No. 1-rated Survivor market since
Bingham's appearance." |
