About Me

That's my "heart dog" you see in the photo....She's a Samoyed and her name is Pearl (aka Princess Pearl, aka "The Joe Dog's Most Beautiful Daughter" - Joe is in my Pics and mentioned in my "Heroes"). And Pearl holds my heart in her paws, always has since the moment she was born. Pearl is 10 years old and a real sweetie.
Yeah, I could put up a photo of myself, all dressed up or all dressed down or anywhere in-between, but hey, that's what so many people do, so why follow the crowd? No way, not me. Why? Well, read my occupation at the bottom of my profile to find out why!! Oh, yeah !!!
So, as you read my page, you'll find that my interests are extremely varied and I'm open to lots of experiences and ideas - there are just so many things in this world to embrace and enjoy !!!

That headline is from one of my favorite songs (many of you will know it)....kind of appropriate for MySpace since all are welcome and flights of fancy are "here, there and everywhere", yes?

My MySpace name? Yeah, that's from one of my favorites too !!! So, yes, I am strong. How strong, you ask? Well, strong as a small pony at least. Isn't that right, Eddie? Oh yes, to answer that important question: I'll have cake, please. And if you're out of cake, I'll have the chicken...
Let's see, what else? Oh yeah, I'm of Irish heritage, with a wee bit o' the Scottish in me. Now would that be the whiskey or the country? Did I just see a leprechaun? Believe in fairies? Yes, I do...I do believe....
And just so ya know...I'm a little bit buffer, a little bit traveler, and all rock 'n roll. Yep, you can ask, I'll be happy to tell you, if you don't know what it means already!!
Animals - I love them. I believe that there is a mystic knowledge in all animals, especially the wolf, the bear, the eagle and the horse, and of course, the dogs...I believe we humans can learn from them, if we just take the time to pay attention...
...."What ye send forth comes back to thee, so ever mind the law of three....follow this with mind and heart....merry ye meet, and merry ye part." ... And merry meet again !!
Blessed be.....To everyone who visits me...

People who have things in common with me and people who are different from me....it's just so much more interesting that way !!!
People who like to have fun and have a wicked sense of humor!!!

Music:

The Beatles because they started it all and it still keeps going strong thanks to Paul McCartney. And John Lennon's timeless music.
John Lennon-Imagine

And well gotta luv The Ramones for wanting to be sedated 24 hours a day!!! (now where did I put my Xanax?)
Ramones

Green Day for writing "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)".

Green Day - Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)

The Who. In 1978, and I saw them really rock it that year!!! This song, still appropriate today!
THE WHO- Won't get fooled again

Adam Ant. The Beach Boys. Dean Martin.

Susan Aglukark (Native Canadian singer with a very pure voice). Native American flute music. The soundtrack to "O Brother, Where Art Thou?". Celtic music. And so much more....too many to list....music rocks and touches the soul, all at the same time.

Movies:

"Across The Universe" (so fab!!)
ANYTHING with Johnny Depp, from "Edward Scissorhands" to "Pirates of the Caribbean" and everything in-between like "What's Eating Gilbert Grape?" & now "Sweeney Todd" (a masterpiece of film-making on so many levels).
Anything created by the Coen Brothers, from "The Big Lebowski" to "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" and even the guilty pleasure, "Bad Santa". (although, I must admit I didn't think much of "No Country For Old Men")
"Desperado" with Antonio Banderas (best action flick of the 90's). Mousehunt (for laughs when I need cheering up). Back to the Future #1 (because it's just such a great flick). Big Fish. Skeleton Key. I Am Sam. Joe Dirt (come on, you know it's funny!!). The Green Mile (I cry every time I watch it). All The Beatles flicks. Waitress (makes me wanna own a pie shop!!) Gangs of New York. Legends of the Fall (Brad Pitt, with long hair, riding a horse, need I say more!!). School of Rock! Lots and lots of old black and white flicks from the 40s and 50s, especially "Too Late Blues" with Bobby Darin and Stella Stevens, and "Bell, Book and Candle". The Seven Year Itch (Marilyn Monroe at her best!!). "The Wizard of Oz", a classic, "because, because, because, because, because......."

Television:

Curb Your Enthusiam - for comic genius, intellectual laughs and totally hilarious "cringe moments" !! Thank goodness for Larry David, Curb's creator and main character, who can get away with so many things that other mainstream comedy wouldn't dare to touch!!! Who is Larry David? Well, the co-creator of "Seinfeld", so pretty much a given that he'd come up with a second great show.

Seinfeld, obviously !!
Pushing Daisies - WOW!!! What a great show, so creative for network TV, and it also makes me wanna own a pie shop !!!
All My Children - yes, I'm addicted - I watch everyday since forever.

The Girls Next Door - it's great fun and they have lots of doggies too!!
Lots of HGTV shows about houses (like I said, pretty sure I was a real estate agent in a past life!!)
The Riches - Eddie Izzard's new show on FX!!
Eddie Izzard's comedy special, "Dress To Kill" - this guy is hilariously and intelligently funny. And all of Eddie's other comedies are great too!! He's genius in concert - I've seen him twice and I get exhausted from laughing !!!

Denis Leary's comedy specials, especially when he rants about coffee - yeah, I want coffee-flavored coffee too, Denis!! What can I say but that Denis is great and hugely funny AND Irish !!

Books:

Interview With A Vampire and other Anne Rice books, The Making of a Champion (a book about Secretariat, the great race horse). The Beatles Anthology and other books about The Beatles. And a book I wrote with my husband, entitled "The New Owner's Guide to the Samoyed". Yep, I'm an actual published author - who would have thought?

Heroes:

My dogs, for their ability to give unconditional love. And one dog, my dearest Champion Tega's Joe Knows, for being a powerful spirit, and having an iron will and an amazing heart...a big, shining spotlight who came into my life and enriched all that surrounded him....never to be forgotten by all those who loved him. Joe was, and always will be, my most brightest blessing.

Tinker Bell, when she's pissed or pouting !!!

Now, StrongPony's gotta go find her pixie dust...definitely time to sprinkle some !!! Should I? Nah, I don't Tink so !!! Well, maybe....
