    Everything you wanted to know but was afraid to ask
    1. I am 27, and female.
    2. I grew up in Rochester, NY. Moved to the suburbs for a few years, then back to the city for my late teens. I preferred the country life, and at 18 moved to North Carolina(can't get more backwoods than that) I lived in Atlanta for about a year, then moved down to Orlando Florida for 5 years. Then back to North Carolina for 3. Now I am back in Ny(hating every second of it!)
    3. I love to travel, hehe can you tell. I made a cross country trip to Oregon and want to do it again and again. Traveling by car is a great way to see the country.
    4. I have two children, and boy and girl, and one cooking in the oven. Oh that sounded bad! I am due to deliver my 3rd child in March lol
    5. I love talking to older people. I love to hear stories about their life. And hear any advice they are willing to share.
    6. I am an outgoing person, and love to meet people.
    7. I am gullible, and I have often been fooled..lol
    8. Favorite movie? Too many to mention. I love the old time musicals, and chick flicks, I also love action movies, but no scary movies, I have nightmares! Running on Empty, and A cool dry place, definatly top 2 movies.
    9. I love to flirt
    10. I love to talk to and I am very open about who I am and what I want. Another can't you tell?

    In a controversy the instant we feel anger, we have already ceased striving for the truth, and have begun striving for ourselves.

    hi plh,

    Ann Rule writes non-fiction stories, unlike the other authors I mentioned. She is a former Seattle policewoman who writes about all her cime files. She's a true crime writer and most of her books are about several different cases. She might have 5 or 6 differet stories in one book, sometimes more, and includes pictures of the people she writes about. Sometimes they aren't nice pictures of the victims, so be warned. She wrote a book on Ted Bundy years ago, bcause she actually knew him. He was a co-worker and a friend of hers and she never knew the real him. The book is called either "A Stranger Beside Me", or "The Stranger Beside Me". I've read every book she's ever written. I haven't read all of Dean Koontz' or John Saul's books yet though. I fell behind more than three years ago when I got my computer.

    peace,
    somebody
    P.S. In The Name OF Love is one ofAnn Rules books that I remember. It's one that has about six different stories in it.

    1) I was born in a large Midwestern city situated in a corn field.

    1. I have moved 35 times in my life. (I think I have some restless nomad genes in here somewhere.)

    2. I grew up in a small town in Indiana and now work in John Mellencamp's hometown, Seymour, Indiana.

    3. For awhile I lived around Atlanta (Duluth, Lawrenceville, and McDonough) and worked in Buckhead and Midtown, so I wonder if Joelbear and I have crossed paths before.

    4. I have also lived near Washington, D.C. (Bethesda), and in Fort Lauderdale, Florida; D'Iberville, Biloxi, and Ocean Springs, Mississippi; and near Denver, Colorado (Aurora). Perhaps I've crossed the paths of others as well?

    5. I once worked as a nanny for a Jewish family and made the heinous mistake of packing a non-kosher bologna sandwich for the little boy's Jewish preschool lunch.

    6. My favorite subject in school was art.

    7. My favorite authors are Jane Austen, Thomas Hardy, and John Kennedy Toole.

    8. I love old black and white movies and cheesy musicals: Night of the Iguana, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, Oklahoma!, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers.

    9. I also love to make sarcastic remarks about cheesy movies, e.g. Mystery Science Theater 3000.
