Getting to know one another better!

[Dominus Fidelis]

Ahem... it involves racing fast cars down a straight racetrack. No, it does not involve THAT!

Speak for yourself!

Here is me drag racing...

 

[Markh]

I think I did this a while ago, but I will do it again 5, perhaps new, more negative things about me:

1. I am pretty shy in real life, but I am sadly not innocent
2. I create the illusion that I am a good student, but was once (about 5 years) suspended from school for fighting.
3. I am currently at Warwick University studying for a politics degree, but the "studying" is all to frequently left out.
4. My metabolism hides my, sadly too frequent, gluttony
5. Around my friends I seem to act as if I am especially knowledgeable but sadly, it is just that my nature tends towards arrogance.

 

[Jamme]

Okay Mark... honesty is good... but self-depracation should be balanced by some positivity

Tell us some good things about you

Just... *L* You know it was sort of the image I had. I thought it involved racing on very high heels or something. *shakes my head*

Five things... where to start?

1. I have two beautiful daughters and a great husband... been happily married forever... (24 yrs.)...

2. I love reading poetry and I love reading about history. I also love James Michener and many other good books similar to the style of Michener. Don't tell anyone, but once in awhile... I might even read a "Romance Novel"... but not often... Lately, I have been studying and reading books about Catholicism... trying to increase my knowledge in our faith. I also love the book, "True Devotion To Mary", written by St. Louis DeMonfort. That is one great cool book... It caught me on the first sentence...

3. I love Classical, Blues, Jazz, Oldies, 60's, a little bit of the 70's and a lot of the 80's and 90's music. Actually, I love all music that has heart and soul into it. I do like Super Tramp band and the Guess Who and the Beatles... etc... I love music... And yes... I even have "Monk" Chant music that I like to relax with. Now, one of my secrets... (don't tell anyone... )... I even like country music... too... LOL

4. I enjoy the great sense of humor that my fellow Catholics have here on OBOB... It is much better to laugh and be happy than to be sad and yucky...I like my computer too. It's rather a new discovery for me... and now... I'm probably on it too much because things are not getting done, that need to be done... LOL

5. I love driving stick in my truck... it gives me the feeling as if I'm racing and going fast... even though... I have never raced or drag raced before... but that does sound fun...to at least watch.

6. I discovered how much I love praying the Rosary and the Novenas...

I hope that I didn't put you all to sleep... LOL

God's Peace,

D'Ann

1. I have two beautiful daughters and a great husband... been happily married forever... (24 yrs.)...

Awwwwww!!! That is so wonderful!!

faith. I also love the book, "True Devotion To Mary", written by St. Louis DeMonfort. That is one great cool book... It caught me on the first sentence...

The Monfort missionaries run my parish.

3. I love Classical, Blues, Jazz, Oldies, 60's, a little bit of the 70's and a lot of the 80's and 90's music. Actually, I love all music that has heart and soul into it.

Air Supply is my dirty secret. Lol. My husband makes fun of me incessantly. Big Band music and crooners from the 40s and 50s are my favorite. Gregorian chants are fabulous, and so interesting to learn about from a musical standpoint. Like how they stretched out the ending syllable in Alleluia - Alleluia-a-a-a--a -- it may seem off to the modern listener, but in chant, it's an expression of joy, and had it's own term: the jubilius. I love that word.

now... I'm probably on it too much because things are not getting done, that need to be done... LOL

Uh oh. It's fun though! PC or Mac? I discovered Macs a couple years ago and am hooked. Unfortunately hubby is an PC computer guru -- ideologies clash!

That's so sweet. It is peaceful, isn't it?

 

[Poohbear246]

Man, I had to go back and eradicate several smiles from that post, or it wouldn't go through. Lol. The smiles are implied.

 

[Poohbear246]

>5. My cat wakes me up sometimes by slapping me in the face with his claws.

Mine does too! What's up with that?? Lol. Then she'll jump over my head back and forth.

Hi Poohbear246,

Awwwwww!!! That is so wonderful!!

Wow that sounds wonderful, how does it work out? I'm not familiar with this part of Monfort... not yet anyway... so much to learn...

I love that word.

I love Air Supply... but don't tell anyone... LOL I love Frank Sinatra too and the Glen Miller band too and Bing Cosby and Fred Astraire... and Ginger Rogers... have to give her some credit too... We love the Gregorian chants too. The musc soothes my soul. It's amazing how beautiful this music is and how they arrange the music is sooo awesome and your word "jubilius"... I like that word too.

My husband teases me constantly when I listen to country music or my favorite oldies, but goodies (50 - 60's)... but I just ignore him and sing a long... he teases me for singing off key too... but I don't blame him for that... my singing hurts my ears too.... LOL ...

My favorite old time actor of all time is Jimmy Stewart too. He was very attractive in a sweet way... goofy, but sweet.

Uh oh. It's fun though! PC or Mac? I discovered Macs a couple years ago and am hooked. Unfortunately hubby is an PC computer guru -- ideologies clash!

My dad has a MAC... he loves it. We have, I believe a PC computer with Windows... It's probably a good thing that I don't know too much about computers yet because chances are... my dh and I would clash too... what's wrong with a little spice to add into the sugar?... LOL

That's so sweet. It is peaceful, isn't it?

Yes... This is fun... I like this... thank you.

God's Peace,

D'Ann

p.s... I love American Idol and this year is especially awesome...

I love my many cats and my Golden Lab... Buttercups... they are my spoiled little babies that think they are human... they sleep all over the place... and I love it...they all are so cute...

That is soooo cute.... One of my cats will sleep above my head and purr real loud... he is sooo sweet too.

1. I have a secret passion for H.P. Lovecraft stories.

2. The sportiest car I have ever owned was a 1972 Buick Gran Sport with a 455. (Blue with a black vinyl top.)

3. I haven't gone hunting since 1978, or fishing since 1975.

4. I like country music, provided it was recorded before 1973.

5. I have climbed two mountains in my life; one in upstate New York, and one in Alaska.

What does H.P. stand for...

The sportiest car I have ever owned was a coldbalt blue Camara 1989... I still have it in my garage... don't drive it much now... LOL

I've never been hunting... last time fishing was probably 1994 or so...

I've climbed many mountains... not the physical ones... the heart ones...LOL

P.S...

I love Johnny Cash and Tammy Wynette and Patsy Cline... and William Hanks, Lorretta Lynn and lots of other old Country Music... it is one of my favorite kinds of music.

 

[Wolseley]

and Ginger Rogers... have to give her some credit too...

Darn straight you do. After all, she did everything Fred did---except she did it backwards and in high heels.

What does H.P. stand for...

Howard Phillips.
