I am here for Friends

About Me

*****************************************************Just checking to see who else is out there - hopefully folks that enjoy laughing at themselves and the world around them. I love a good sense of humor and have very simple needs and likes. I'm one of those that can be delighted watching a worker ant in his travels; and be equally intrigued with the latest poetry by Sandra Cisneros. I really like life and the ride I'm on. People are amazing to me and I'm thankful they come in such a variety! Hope you'll come play! :) :) :) ********************************************
You Act Like You Are 27 Years Old
You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel like an adult, and you're optimistic about life.
You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.
You're still figuring out your place in the world and how you want your life to shape up.
The world is full of possibilities, and you can't wait to explore many of them. What Age Do You Act? ********************************************

What Classic Movie Are You?
personality tests by similarminds.com ***********************
Your Love Life is Like Casablanca
"Kiss me. Kiss me as if it were the last time."
For you, love is never finished. If you've loved someone once, you'll always love them.
You're an old fashioned romantic... even if your relationships don't end up as romantic as you'd like.
Your love style: Traditional and understated
Your Hollywood Ending Will Be: Complicated and ambiguous What Movie Is Your Love Life Like?

Television:

HOCKEY 1st and foremost (Let's Go Kings and Coyotes), Monk, Family Guy, Law and Order, Deadlist Catch, Mythbusters, did I say HOCKEY?... most things on History or Discover channels. I loved Band Of Brothers and Lonesome Dove (mini series). I prefer listening to music or popping in a movie to watching what's on the tube, most times. I do wish they'd put "Get Smart" back in syndication.

Books:

I'm an avid reader, so it's hard to list my favorites...here are some author's I enjoy; there are many, many more! I enjoy Matt Reilly, Chuck Palahniuk, Kurt Vonnegut (I'll miss him!), Margaret Atwood, Jack Kerouac, Richard Brautigan, e.e. cummings, Tom Robbins, Ayn Rand, Pearl Buck, Helene Hanff, Ken Follet, Anne Tyler, Michael Ondaatje, Anais Nin, Shel Silverstein, Sandra Cisneros, A.A. Milne, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Michael Crichton, old Stephen King, C.S. Lewis, Pablo Neruda and Anne Michaels..to name a few authors and poets. Oh and I love horror books too. I'll read that stuff and then have night terrors (run screaming from the room; bed sheets in tow..trailing down the hall behind me. I hate having to remake the bed. bummer).


You're Catch-22!
by Joseph Heller
Incredibly witty and funny, you have a taste for irony in all that you see. It seems that life has put you in perpetually untenable situations, and your sense of humor is all that gets you through them. These experiences have also made you an ardent pacifist, though you present your message with tongue sewn into cheek. You could coin a phrase that replaces the word "paradox" for millions of people.
Take the Book Quiz at the Blue Pyramid .

I also love American History (all history really) *************
You Are a Smart American
You know a lot about US history, and you're opinions are probably well informed.
Congratulations on bucking stereotypes. Now go show some foreigners how smart Americans can be. Are You a Dumb American?

Heroes:

Mom (for the laughter and hugs), Mr. Suwicki (4th grade teacher: for never giving up on me when others did), Donna Zimring (for sharing her wisdom and warmth), Tony Clark (for making unconditional love mean something), Howard Levitt (for filling in on the father/daughter gigs at school and letting me feel like I was the one doing him the favor. I'll never forget; and all the men and women serving our country... THANK YOU! AND I'M...****************************************************** RED SKELTON'S PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE 1969
