1. What book or movie left a lasting impression on you?

Book, the easy answer for me would be the Bible, but I think that might be too easy so I’ll go with the Outsiders. I identified with the poor kids, but it was then that I realized the rich kids had troubles too. And winning a fight didn’t change which side each came from.
Movie, Hoosiers, small town wins the state title against the big town.

1. What do you think the purpose of life is?

To have a relationship with the Creator of the universe while enjoying His creations with the ones you love.

1. What is your favorite hobby?

Either fishing, hunting or fixing things that are broke.

1. Who is the least intelligent person alive?

Any DEI hire who thinks they are making a difference (ironically, they usually espouse how DEI is necessary, but hate being referred to as a DEI hire…)

1. Who is the most attractive actor/actress from your childhood or beyond?

Kathy Ireland. Still can see those SI swimsuit issues in my mind’s eye…Dang what a looker

As a child I read a lot; Enid Blyton's series on children living on farms; Children of Willow Tree Farm/Cherry Tree farm etc. Lots of nature; and Anne of Green Gables. As an adult I think Toni Morrison- the first time I read Beloved- and the movie Revenant.
