WELCOME to my cyber home. Along with this Home page, you'll find separate pages for: "News and Notes," FAQs," "World Records," "Links / Search," and "Contact Info." I also have five pages of Photos in the categories of "Celebrities," Contests," "Exhibitions" (or Appearances), "Friends," and "Just Me." You'll also find a 2 minutes-15 seconds, 45-image "Photobucket Slide Show" on a separate page.

Additionally, you'll find a "Featured Legendary Eater" page, whereby each quarter (as opposed to each month) the focus will be on a legend of competitive eating. I felt obligated to add this feature out of honor to those who pioneered the way before me. It's the least I can do for the great early contributors of our oldest natural sport. Perhaps some day, if I'm worthy, someone might do the same for me.

My July - September 2008 Featured Legendary Eater is the current Commissioner of the IFOCE, and the person who had the most influence on me, strategy-wise, and who coached me, early on in my eating career:  "Hungry" Charles Hardy, aka "The Godfather." So, in effect, I guess I'm an extension of "The Godfather" when I'm at the competitive eating table.

There's also a "Tools" page that contains a link for the weather, as well as a "Dogpile" brand search engine. Finally, there is a Merriam-Webster online dictionary search box. I hope you use these tools. Another useful item that you'll find on a separate page is a mapping tool, which will allow you to plan the trip to your next eating event (as an eater or a spectator).

Finally, I have added a page entitled, "Sonya's View: A Peak Inside the Web." Here, I occasionally post a bit of personal philosophy or opinion about issues related to competitive eating.

May you enjoy your visit!

Deliciously yours, 
Sonya "The Black Widow" Thomas
