Who are some of your heroes?: Eleanor Roosevelt--Barbara Walters, although I think she's tarnishing her legacy by appearing on The View--Gloria Steinem. I'll add more as I think of them.

What are some of your favorite movies?: Recently saw "Mamma Mia" starring Meryl Streep - Excellent!

Have you read any good books lately or whenever?: To start with, I just read and reviewed Barbara Walters book, "Auditions," on my blog, francesellenspeaks.com, but I have a lot of favorite books: "Centennial" by James Michener, everything Dickens ever wrote, and believe it or not, I re-read "Last of the Mohicans" from time to time.
Lately, I've read "Water For Elephants" (wonderful) and I liked "Girl With a Dragon Tatoo."

What kind of music do you like?: I love the Oldies, of course, but I'm also a fan of Big Band, the Blues and some of the peaceful, laid-back New Age stuff.

I can write, but I'm not on friendly terms with the inner workings of the computer. (My friend, Robin, who has also joined our community, can attest to that. She's another techie wizard.) We shall see. If I need guidance, Virginia will be hearing from me. And I'm expecting a visit from Robin next week, so I will get some feedback from her firsthand. That being said, I'm hopeful that I'll be able to expand our sign-in information and put one or two questions in the forum section.

This is such fun! Even as lousy as I'm feeling, I'm so excited and encouraged and inspired to know you are out there. (My peeps!)
