Being outside, reading, drinking cold water, anthropology, Sonic ice, music, salt & vinegar chips, being on boats, infectious diseases, birds, coffee, social trends, wound care, new mascara, clouds, vegetables, dogs, traveling, eating out, road trips, snakes, tea, epidemiology, conversations, writing, playing cards, cats, Italian food, water, and weather. I DON'T LIKE unloading the dishwasher, taking the trash out, slow drivers, edging the lawn, shopping at Walmart on Saturday, barbeque, and anything to do with eyeballs. THE DRIVING PASSION OF MY ENTIRE HEART, MIND, SOUL, AND BODY . . . getting people to enter into the Conversation.
YOU
You scored as Peter Pan. Your alter ego is Peter Pan. You are a child at heart. Anything you believe is possible, and you never want to grow up.
Peter Pan

The Beast
Snow White
Cruella De Ville
You're interested in things such as politics, psychology, child care, and peace. I wouldn't go so far as to call you a hippie, but some of you may be tree-huggers. You're the type of people who are interested in bettering the world. You're possible the least nerdy of them all; unless you participate in other activies that paled your nerdiness compared to your involvement in social activities. Whatever the case, we could still use more of you around. ^_^

I love Robert Duvall, Tommie Lee Jones, Jackie Chan . . . I do like A&E's Pride and Prejudice (watch that, and then re-watch Bridget Jones' Diary . . . enlightening) and To Kill a Mockingbird. There are more, but you get the idea.
Law and Order, Heroes. What I don't like: Lifetime, TLC, Disney.
Cry the Beloved Country; Mere Christianity; The Source; Passage to India; heck - I can't list them. I love anything by Watchman Nee, Lewis Thomas, Dietrich Bonhoeffer,Brennan Manning, Andrew Murray, Donald Miller and associates, etc. I like books about medical anthropology, missions (Christian or not), poetry, I tend to like Spanish authors but not so much Russian authors, I like to read Mother Jones and the New Yorker . . . but I disagree with most all that they say. The writing is just better than that of those whose opinions I match.
