Discovering TRUTH mostly...this world is FULL of LIES just in case you didn't know...Beautiful LIES at times, but LIES none-the-less!I enjoy Bible study and Christian lit. And I'm OBSESSED with all my "Little Monsters" aka "Little Preciouses" who are my kids and their friends. They are WAY TOO COOL not to hang with!I get lost on the internet a lot these days! And I think COFFEE is one of God's GREATEST CREATIONS EVER!
I'd like to meet:
The Apostle Paul -- you can't get much more of an "extreme makeover" than that guy got!And I'd love to meet Kermit the Frog and Weird Al Yankovic too!
Music:
I recommend TRUTH-Based, Faith-Based Music, and the character of my favorite musicians is of the UTMOST IMPORTANCE to me! You will find IMPECCABLE CHARACTER within the list below, as well as INCREDIBLE MUSIC!EleventysevenThis Beautiful RepublicLADENFive Talents MoreLeelandafterEightCircleslide

Television:
I like The Logan Show a lot! He ALWAYS picks musical guests who I LIKE! Not sure how he always KNOWS what I'm gonna like, but he DOES!And believe it or not, lately, The Gospel Music Channel ROCKS!!! I KNOW!!! It was hard for me to believe too, but I've heard everything from Family Force 5, to Skillet, Dead Poetic, to Norma Jean, and UnderOath on there recently! Check it out for yourself!It's Channel 172 in our area, and it ain't just your Grandma's Gospel Music anymore~! I mean, The Almost is playing on there as I type! UNBELIEVABLE for sure!!!

Heroes:
Jesus Christ...The Greatest Supernatural Super Hero Of All Time...Past, Present, and Future!You should read His Book! It's FILLED with God's LOVE LETTERS to His kids, and it's better than ANY of my other favorites! READ IT! I DARE YOU!Oh, and my good friend, Peter is a real-life Superhero too! Betcha didn't know that, because he's so humble, he'd never tell ya, but he really is!!! =)And ALL of The Diehards are my heroes too! I wanna BE THEM when I grow up!My other heroes include the kids I know who overcome adversities in their lives and go on to help others. And the incredible musicians of today who give up their very lives to show these kids Truth and Hope...those who would rather hear, "Well done, good and faithful servant" someday, than the applause of the world's masses today!
