My Family Business
I built this bohemian rosewood guitar under the instruction of my father, who is a luthier and who learned the craft from my grandfather. I eventually built three, two I have and one that was purchased by a musician in Hawaii.
This baby sounds and plays just as good as she looks, and I love her very much.
Thanks Dad.
If you would like information regarding his ukuleles, shoot me a message. I'll hook ya up - I have CONNECTIONS..:)
You Are Rain
You can be warm and sexy, or cold and unwelcoming. Either way, you slowly bring out the beauty around you.
You are best known for: your touch
Your dominant state: changing
What Type of Weather Are You?
You Are Sunrise
You enjoy living a slow, fulfilling life. You enjoy living every moment, no matter how ordinary.
You are a person of reflection and meditation. You start and end every day by looking inward.
Caring and giving, you enjoy making people happy. You're often cooking for friends or buying them gifts.
All in all, you know how to love life for what it is - not for how it should be.
What Time Of Day Are You?
I like motorcycle riding (on the back if I HAVE to), fishing, camping, star gazing, making my grandson laugh (he's so good at it) and making others laugh. Grew up playing the guitar, but haven't for a while - just purchased some new Elixir strings and am getting back at it again. Love to take a drive in my hot rod - Come on Spring!!!
Yeah. This will most definitely work for me.. hell it has my initials on the license plate already! :))
What kind of automobile are you
Pontiac GTO
You rely on sheer power to get you from point A to point B. It's old school or no school!
How do you compare?

I'd like to meet:
I would like to meet the Dalai Lama to just bask in the glow of his peaceful wisdom and wonderful sense of humor, Sam Elliot and Mel Gibson (those are REAL men - loyal men who know the value of integrity and true love, and did I mention two of THE MANLIEST MEN ON EARTH?), I'd like to meet Mmmmmmmmmmmatthew MmmmmmcConaughey (need I say why?), George Clooney just because he's so damn handsome and funny, Pink because she has a kick ass sense of humor and is extremely intelligent, and Rachel Ray so we could hang out and she could cook me lunch (LOL).
What's your personality like? (detailed +stylish banners)
Balanced/Kind-hearted As the most well-rounded of the personality types, you're not really easily found among people nowadays. You think logically, but that doesn't mean you don't have totally sappy moments like typical teenagers. You're a lucky one, people like you for who you are and you return the 'favor'. It's also a gift of yours to mostly see the good in people and have a mainly bright perspective of life. Almost too perfect to be imperfect, congratulations!

VAN MORRISON lyrics
My Wonderful Circle of Friends ~ Love ya ♥ K~
Music:
I love old rock and roll, Nazareth, Pink Floyd, Van Halen, GNR, Metallica... bad ass guitar players turn me on - Eddy Van Halen, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Eric Clapton.. blues, southern rock (my favorite is Skynyrd), Black Oak Arkansas, April Wine, Dire Straits, Supertramp, Queen, Heart, Bad Company, Three Dog Night, Elton John...and the list goes on. Ray LaMontagne, Anna Nalick (she's deep for her age) and Sheryl Crow... I pretty much like anything but rap and opera (I guess I'm not civilized enough for that). Jazz is a little confusing to me too. I think if you can make a bunch of mistakes while you're playing a song and nobody can tell, well... it's not the kind of music I'll dig. I enjoy good baptist deep south gospel singing - those ladies can belt out a song, now! Whatever the case, give me something to drive fast by and I'm a happy girl... :)

Movies:
Lord of the Rings, Kill Bill I & II, Riding in Cars w/boys, The Changeling (great old spooky movie w/George C. Scott), Quigley Down Under, The Green Mile, Flashback, The Redheaded Stranger, The Big Lebowski, Outlaw Josey Wales, Easyrider, Raising Arizona, Little Big Man, Titan AE, Spaceballs, all of the Harry Potters, The Warriors, Practical Magic, Heavy Metal, suspense films ... all kinds of movies. Even scary ones, as long as I have someone to hug.
My favorite poem from one of my favorite movies:
"All that is gold does not glitter
Not all those who wander are lost
The Old that is strong does not wither
Deep roots are not reached by the Frost...
From the ashes a fire shall be woken
A light from the shadows shall spring
Renewed shall be Blade that was broken
And crownless again shall be King"
Now I'm trying to recite that from memory, so please, nobody jump on my ass if I got a word wrong here or there.. it's the thought that counts.. :)
Television:
Create your own Friend Quiz here
Don't get to watch too much TV anymore, but I like comedy, some of those investigative shows like forensic files (court TV stuff), *UPDATE* SCREW COURT TV, THE GREEDY BASTARDS!!.. Ahem.. South Park, the Discovery Channel series Planet Earth, The Living Edens, Futurama...
(ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD!!!)
*SHAKES HEAD VIOLENTLY TO CLEAR IT*
.....and Family Guy - I guess it just depends on my mood. Lately, I've found myself laughing out loud at Will & Grace (don't ask me why). I NEVER turn down a good laugh anymore. Not into sports much, but I used to watch a ton of boxing. Would rather see a sporting event live any day.
Books:
MySpace recently decided to eat my profile..mmm...so I had to rebuild it, but I'm glad, cuz I got a better score on this test - Guess having coffee helped. :)I've read all kinds of fantasy books, Lord of the Rings, Robin Hobb books, all the Harry Potters, and all the Dean Koontz and Katherine Kerr books, but haven't read much lately. I like dragons, wizards and I'm really into Celtic fantasy.

Which tarot card are you?
Spiritual enlightenment, inner illumination, hidden power. Link between seen and unseen. Balance of positive and negative forces. Receptivity. Unseen guidance.
A young woman sits on a throne holding a scroll labeled "Tora" meaning "law." On her breast is the sign of the meeting of heaven and earth, the Maltese cross. Her crown is the full orb supported by horns, the crown ofthe Mother Goddess Isis, who rules all things changeable, shown by the moon at her feet. Her power, upon which her throne rests, derives from the creative principle of duality, shown by the two pillars of light and darkness. To those who know and love her she dispenses the sweet fruit of the world itself, symbolized by the pomegranates.
~Desiderata~
Go placidly amid the noise and the haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible, without surrender,
be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly;
and listen to others,
even to the dull and the ignorant;
they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons;
they are vexatious to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others,
you may become vain or bitter,
for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career, however humble;
it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.
Exercise caution in your business affairs,
for the world is full of trickery.
But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals,
and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love,
for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment,
it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years,
gracefully surrendering the things of youth.
Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune.
But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline,
be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God,
whatever you conceive Him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations,
in the noisy confusion of life,
keep peace in your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
~Max Ehrmann~
