About me

Gender Female
Location Raleigh, NC, United States
Introduction I am passionate about many things and the older I get, the more I find myself expanding my interests. I don't take things at face value, thus I am quite active in researching in order to get to the truth behind the hype and sensationalism. When I have the facts, I'm able to form an educated opinion instead of blindly accepting what is fed to the public through the media. I wanted a forum to share my thoughts on books I've read, movies I've watched, music I love and current events that arise in politics and the media.
Interests WWII, history, reading, movie watching, following political and current events, music, dogs, travel, learning new things
Favorite Movies I am a lover of all genres, with the exception of a genre I like to call "stupid comedy". Each genre, for me has multiple films that have a place among my favorites.
Favorite Music I'm a lover of all music, with the exception of new country, rap, and hip hop. I have my favorites that match up with my mood. The band that awakened my musical interest again in the late 90's was Symphony X- a power symphonic speed metal band that is under appreciated, as their music is not "radio friendly" and thus, they are not widely well-known.
Favorite Books I am a lover of nearly books, but I really don't care for romance, such as Danielle Steel, or "fluffy" fiction. My passion is WWII non-fiction and history, in general. I love historical fiction, biographies, and books on media- film, music, movies and politics.

Your superpower is that you smell like dandelions whenever someone lies. How will you maintain your secret identity?

Do what I can, through dedicated and thorough research in an ongoing manner, to provide the facts and thereby expose those emitting the dandelion aroma to themselves and other dandelion aroma emitters.
