Heidi Strobel, former cast member of "Survivor: The Amazon," Playboy model and current wife of Philadelphia Phillies pitcher Cole Hamels recently told the following to Sports Illustrated (it appears in an upcoming cover story): "We're in the process of adopting an AIDS orphan from Ethiopia. Maybe two. I'm so pumped. I'd adopt six if I could. When I was 5 years old -- I grew up in a very rural town in Missouri, and I had never even seen a black person -- they asked us to draw a picture of ourselves in the future, and I drew myself holding hands with a line of tiny black stick figures. I've always wanted this."
Nice try, Heidi. All stick figures are black. Click here to see a larger image of Strobel and Hamels.

Wow that is so great to hear. Heidi was my seventh grade teacher when she went on Survivor. She was really inspirational and it does not surprise me that she is doing something so amazing for others. As a teacher and coach she really cared for her students and helped us with our problems, she was kind of like the big sis to all of us girls. Heidi I hope your happy with your marriage and your new family that you're creating. I'm graduated now and can only hope to follow your amazing foot steps.
