About Me
I'm a Blogger by nature, but I just discovered that about myself the first week of February 2005. I have always been something of a writer, and I have always liked off the top of my head mini shorts. I am a huge fan of 50 word fictions. Some of my poetry is written in very free style and some of it is in the most constrained form, so that tells you a little about me. I am fussy about typos and spelling and it irritates me when I see that others aren't. At any rate, keeping a more or less daily Web Log is right up my alley and I am really enjoying what has resulted in a few short weeks of experimenting around with my family.

Favorite Movies
Favorite Music
- I love music
- and my likes are varied
- but I suppose I prefer anything the singer has written himself. Only he can really get the interpretation right. Therefore
- my favorites are guys like Kris Kristofferson
- Roger Miller
- Johnny Cash
- Tom T. Hall. and on and on. And Barry Manilow may well be the Greatest Singer/Song-Writer of all time.
Favorite Books
- My favorite book is usually whatever I am reading. About the only book I ever laid down was "Tale of Two Cities" I guess it was too deep for me at the time. In contrast
- I have completely read through and absorbed
- A.) The Bible
- B.) Einstein's "Relativity: The Special and General Theory" C.) "The Song of Hiawatha" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Lately
- I have read Dan Brown's
- "The DaVinci Code" and "Angels and Demons"
- which Lia also read. I also read "Secrets of the Code"
- but did not enjoy Dan Burstein as much as Dan Brown. I am also a huge fan of Garrison Keillor.
