Music
Classic Rock mostly. I like the Christian rock and pop from the 80's and 90's. I like some country and a tidbit of classical.---------
Larry Norman, the “father of Contemporary Christian Music”, passed away on Feb. 24th, 2008 of heart related problems. His song, “Why should the devil have all the good music” gave birth to the “Jesus music” of the seventies. He also penned the immensely popular song, “I wish we’d all been ready” which was sung by church youth groups for years and rerecorded by DC talk in the 90’s. Two other popular songs were "The Rock that doesn't roll" and "UFO". I became a Christian in 1971 and his music was an inspiration to my life.---------
Star Wars, Star Trek, Superman and all of the other super hero movies. Looking forward to the SG1 movies. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe and Prince Caspian rocked!---------
you know life can be like a baseball game,
We're on the same team, but were not all the same.
That's why we've got to learn to play together.
Gotta keep your eye on the ball
swing straight and true, and follow through.
Don't be afraid, what-ever the call.
Because we're never alone,
Our coach is there to cheer us on.
Heroes
Peter Parker aka Spiderman, Michael Walker aka Knighthawke. Those guys are fictional but my real life hero is my brother David who gave his life trying to protect our sister. -----------------

1 Corinthians 10:12-14 (New International Version) 12,So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall! 13,No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it
