...getting to know all about you.

Borrowing from Wil's salutation to Tigress, let's play an introductions game. I'll pose three questions. The next person answers the three questions, adds one of their own and drops the top question off. Etc. Confusing?

Well, let's see how it goes.

1. How did you learn about/stumble upon CR?

2. What is your occupation?

3. What kind of insect would you be?

I wear taped glasses while I work so I can see. Besides, They're my "lucky" glasses. I'm not nerdy and don't do the other stuff.

Live life one day at a time and laugh as much a possible, because life is a joke.

3.What historical figure would you most like to meet (other than the founder of each of our respective religions)?

Mark, St. Peter's secretary during his tenure as first head of the church in Rome. I'd ask him what was in the other two thirds of his gospel that has been kept a secret and does not appear in the Synoptic Gospels.

1. What is your favorite motion picture and why ?

IP5, (directed by Jean Jaques Beineix and starring Yves Montand. 1992)
I like this story of unrequitted love for several reasons. Its a story of never giving up, its has inter-generational lessons where the young learn from the old and the old learn from the young. It teaches the lesson that its never to late to forgive and relinquish old pains. It is perhaps also the finest last curtain call any actor ever made, Yves Montand dies on set toward the end of production. And of course monsieur Beineix is a master of location, camera angle and choice of score. ***** 5 stars!!!

2. How many different religions (or different flavors of the same religion) have you practiced in your life?

None.

3. If you could be a master craftsman or artist in one particular craft what would it be?

Sculptor/stonemason.
