About Me

Myspace Glitter MakerI am a Southern Girl by birth and heart. I am your Redneck, Southern Cracker. That DOES NOT mean that I am prejudice of those who are different then I am. I believe in a lot of the Old Southern ways of life.......God, family, friends, chivalry, manners, etiquette and all the things that made living in the Old South enjoyable. God Bless the South! Growing up Southern is a privilege, really. It's more than where you're born, it's an idea and state of mind that seems imparted at birth. It's more than loving fried chicken, sweet tea, nascar, country songs and beer/whiskey. It's being hospitable devoted to screen porches, moon pies, Sun Drop...and each other. We don't become Southern--we're born that way. Some times people may say "oh your southern" like its a bad thing well I'm here to say i love what i am and dang it im proud of it.

Music:

I love Country Music and Southern Rock!!!

Movies:

I prefer watching the old classics...mostly black and whites. My husband always ask me "why do we bother having a color tv when all you will watch are black and white movies?"Movies that I enjoy that are color are (to name a few) Dirty Dancing Grease Flashdance Footloose Close Encounters of the Third Kind ETI am not too keen on computer generated movies. I enjoy seeing the actual talent of the actors

Television:

This is easy. I enjoy sitcoms on Court TV (Forensic Files, Cold Case Files, True ..ive type shows). On the regular networks, I enjoy watching: Las Vegas, CSI, Medium, Cold Case, Law and Order, Lost, Unsolved Mysteries, etc. I am not into reality tv. I have enough reality to deal with in my own life. I don't need to watch someone elses. I also do not watch Idol, Big Brother, those dance shows or any of that stuff.

Books:

I enjoy most books such as: true life, biography, Autobiography, history, fiction.

Teachers: Thank You for trying to give our children valuable knowledge so that they may grow and become productive citizens Police officers/Firefighters: I would like to say thanks for risking your lifes daily to protect our cities and our streets. If I missed someone, pls let me know. Last, but not least, my family:
