I know where everything is

El

Great, I wish I had known that last month when I lost my cell phone. I would have called you... oh, wait...



Occupation? At the moment, unemployed. I worked for a major non-profit organization for several years. The last six years with them, I ran a Homeless Family Shelter. In my last job, I was a medical receptionist in an Urgent Care. Oy, I feel like I'm filling out yet another application...

Favorite Books? The Bible. All Creatures Great & Small series. Favorite authors: CS Lewis and Isaac Asimov.



Favorite Movies? The Long Grey Line, Princess Bride, The Mummy, Top Secret, anything with Bing Crosby. Fiddler On The Roof. LoTR. Cheyenne Social Club and The Quiet Man. Favorite Actors/Actresses: Jimmy Stewart, John Wayne, Henry Fonda and Maureen O'Hara. And of course, Bing.



Favorite Music (aside from Al, of course) Steve Camp, and Paul Wilbur. :lookround: Bee Gees, Barry Manilow. Oh yeah, and Bing.



Left handed? Right handed? Righty.



If money was no object, what one thing would you do? You mean if I won the lottery? After I bought houses for all my family members, and gave to various charities (Habitat for Humanity, and Billy Graham for starters) I would tour chase. Since Bing isn't touring, I'd probably follow the Poodle Hat Band. Heh, get it? Poodle Hat Band... Oh, never mind.



Have any hobbies? Lots of artsy craftsy kinds of things. I stick with something as long as it interests me, then I move on. Consequently I have a ton of Craft supplies. I love Computer graphics.



What's the most exciting thing you've ever done? I don't know how exciting it was, but I stepped way out of my comfort zone and showed my dog for one summer. I had to travel, meet new people and learn a lot to do it. I met some wonderful people, spent a lot of money, and discovered that my doggy is much happier just being a dog and not a hair growing machine.



Do you have any special interests or hidden talents? I draw. I sing. I (sort of) play guitar. Bible study is a particular passion of mine.
