 Art, Nostalgia and Trivial Me

My Title:
Barbara or anything referring to the lack of height. (as long as there are no explitives added to it LOL.)
About me:
    I am a mom of two or should I say three.  I have my dog  who just turned 15 in February  and thinks she is a kid.  I love nostalgia and antiques.  They are history that are still around, if only they could talk!  I get shy around others, but if they talk to me I can and do become talkative. LOL.  I have my moments when I can get loud when frustrated , but I usually hide my true feelings. ( I don't like to impose on others).  I'm hoping to get a children's book published after I am through with the proofreading.  I added some art  to our local ground transportation center a year ago, and they finished putting the rest up this last fall. (YAY!)
Hobbies:
I have a lot of hobbies.  I draw, as you can see from the above characature.  I paint with oils, use pastels, have sculpted in clay, carving and wood burning.  I turn 1/6 scale figures (ie: GI Joes and Barbies) into real life people like my big brother and twin sister (fraternal).  I made one of Buddy Holly, Adrian Paul (as Duncan McCloud the Highlander) and one of Usher for my friend's daughter.  I sew, made me a shirt and some 1/6 scale clothes, and help make blankets.  I found I am pretty good with doing new crafts too.  I have GOD to thank for that.  I also collect a lot of stuff, like Tarzan books and comics.  Andrews Sisters 78 records and sheet music.  Original Star Wars toys and books.  I have tons of maps too.
Associations/Clubs:
I am a Brownie Scout  co-leader in a brand new troop with my oldest daughter.
Favorite Movies:
All six of the Thin Man series.  Myrna Loy and William Powell  were great, as was the other six movies they made together.  Any of the many Tarzan films with Johnny Weissmuller (of course) Gordon Scott and Larry 'Buster' Crabbe.
Favorite Shows:
I like watching Little People, Big World.  I can sort of relate.  I like Monk and watching any of the numerous Investigative and forensic programs.  Then I like the old television shows like The Donna Reed Show, anything wholesome with morals.
Favorite Music:
Swing!  I really love it, especially songs of the Andrews Sisters!  My favorite.  I love the Platters singing.  Jim Reeves had a beautiful voice, the Ames Brothers too.  Andy Williams, Perry Como...miss their specials.
Favorite Sports:
I don't really have any, though I always root for the Iowa Hawkeyes in football.  I used to like the Cowboys  back when Tony Dorsett and Roger Staubach played.  I liked the Broncos too.
Favorite Games:
Any of the many Trivial games out there.  Hexic, Destructo II (from Neo Pets) and any like Space Attackers or Space Invaders.  I like the driving/racing games as well.
Favorite Books:
Tarzan of the Apes by Edgar Rice Burroughs and the second one, The Return of Tarzan.  Now, you're going to laugh at this.  Any of the old Dan Frontier children's books and Dick and Jane readers.
Favorite Artists:
For art it would definately be Norman Rockwell.  He has always been my favorite.  Then there is Leonardo DaVinci, who doesn't like his stuff?  I always liked Grant Wood since he painted the country side of my home state!
Favorite Cars:
Ah, my favorite cars are the 1959 - 1962 Nash Metropolitan and the two door hard top 1992 - 1997 Geo Tracker.  I would also like to have a Smart Car
Favorite Gadgets:
I'll have to think about this one for a while.
Favorite Fashion:
 I'm a Dungaree doll, just kidding.  I do like denim...alot.  I even have denim low top tennies with the bump toe.  Cool!   I really like the fashions of the 40's and 50's.
Favorite Brands:
Well, if you're talking food and drink then Chef Boyardi Ravioli and Dr. Pepper plain and Cherry Vanilla flavored.  Clothing, anything that is low priced and affordable and not made by poor overworked  children who should be playing and going to school!
Role Model(s):
Jesus was and is probably the best role model ever, for anyone!  Any one who is for the underdog and for what is right is a good choice.  Those who help the needy without flaunting it and generally cares for others are too.  Stefanie Powers. (She won't wear real furs and started the William Holden Wildlife Refuge in Kenya, Africa), to preserve the endangered animals and other wildlife.
I'd like to meet:
I would liked to have met Johnny Weissmuller (1904-1984), the greatest swimmer of the first half of the 20th century (and played Tarzan).  I wish I could meet Patty Andrews, surviving sister of the Andrews Sisters and Stefanie Powers (Hart to Hart).

This has two meanings. One: I'm in my 40's! :) Two: I love the 40's era. The music, the styles and everything. I also love the 50's, so if you're into that too, I know Trivia!
