What do you consider the #1 issue in this year’s election?
I believe a 'wall' was mentioned, one (female) has email issues, but apparently it is nothing illegal, and one who has everyone's votes, but the voting machine is not responding correctly in which they're recalling a lot of votes.

I was taught to believe that there is only one God, and a son of God...in perspective, like a lot of outdated laws, religion needs a little retooling as well...(cough) women recognition and purpose in particular comes to mind.

I tried to find a Magnum, but never could find one at the price I liked with the options I wanted. Hate they stopped making them. Last couple years I've been driving a Juke, which is like a Magnum that got hit in the rear end by a train. Little more height though, which is good. I like being able to change my oil without a floor jack.
First movie I saw her in was Bram Stoker's Dracula.
She doesn't have a much of a part, but it was definitely a memorable one.

Did not know she was in that movie. I guess that would be the first one I saw her in, I'm pretty sure I saw it before brotherhood. I may have to give that a rewatch, haven't seen it in 20 years or so.

I think it was her first movie role.
I don't think she has a speaking role, but as I said her part in the movie does leave quite the impression.
Le Pacte des loups is a great movie btw, supposedly based on a true account of The Beast of Gevaudan.

Then I look at our microcosm here and see similar sentiments; fortunately, words, not bullets are being exchanged. So I thought I would light a candle, instead of continuing to curse the darkness. So I’ve proposed a questionnaire so we can learn a little more about each other. Some are PnR related, some are not. Feel free to answer all, some, or none:
What is your profession? I know many of you knew that I managed in bars and restaurants, but I've switched paths and took a job in management at a large retailer.
What is your favorite song genre? Man I'm a product of the 90's and definitely favor that era heavily, but I love blues, rock, funk, punk, rap. but I do like jazz and classical
What is your favorite movie? Airplane, Ace Ventura, Shaun of the Dead, Lone Survivor, We Were Soldiers, Glory, Grease, Fight Club, Deer Hunter....Honestly I could go on and on and on....
Should Marijuana be legal? Yep
If you could create one federal law what would it be? I'd have to think about this one for a minute...immigration reform and campaign finance reform come to mind though
What do you consider the #1 issue in this year’s election? That the two party system sucks and both candidates suck
Do you believe in a creator? Possibly, I think it's a personal thing and to each their own.
If you could hand pick the next President who would it be? Wow this is a tough one, I think I could literally pick anyone and it would be better than the two options we have.
If you could live in any country in the world (not your current) and money wasn’t an issue; where would it be? Really good question, But one place I could really see my self living (and I've been there) is Costa Rico.
Do you own a personal firearm? yes
Your dream car? Ooooh another good one....68' Camero. Though there's many others I wouldn't mind having.
Puerto Rico just became the 51st state and must be renamed in some way to honor our history. What do you name it? Puerto Rico

The most interesting place you have ever visited? While I was in the Navy, I visited many countries and found most of them fascinating, I do love traveling. I've also been to quite a few places on my own dime.
Three people (you don’t know) dead or alive that you would want to have dinner with? My Grandpa Thornton (my moms dad died young), Teddy Roosevelt, and Napoleon. I could list more but you said three.
Person past/present (marital status aside and don’t answer if spouse reads forum) you would like to have a one night stand with? The one that says yes
Favorite all-time athlete? That's a tough one, because it's not just one person, it's the 1980 USA Olympic hockey team. Epic.
You favorite alcoholic drink (If you don’t drink alcohol favorite non-alcoholic)? Bourbon. Coffee
If you had to pick someone to play you in your life story who would it be? Another good question...I'll go with Decaprio (sp?)
