  • Nice to meet you, Margaret! Thanks for sharing your story with us on player spotlight. Am wondering who your favorite author is? I really enjoy Carl Hiaasen (who is from Florida as well).

    • Kyle Onstott/Lance Horner(same person deceased) Clayton Porter. I guess you can tell I like series books. lol
      Kyle Onstott’s series starts with Drum. I also like Gabaldon except her last book was “flighty”, not on subject all the time.

  • You sound like a lovely lady. Keep enjoying that Florida sunshine. The rest of the country lives vicariously through us Floridians. :)

    • ALMOST all the rest of the country. I could live without the humidity (especially since we’re flooded [not quite a pun; sorry, Arizona] with it now). Although I love our theme parks, I am a slight bit envious of Florida’s.

  • Nice to meet a fellow Floridian, although I was not born here.

    U R A Beautiful young lady… I use to live in Pensacola Fla.. but moved to the GA Mountains.. was a bit to hot for me in Fla..

    • I did a quick Google search and came up with this Sandi:

      Killing Jesus: A History by Bill O’Reilly and Martin Dugard – Your local library might have it. If not they are available on certain book store websites. I don’t want to put their names on here. That might be a violation of the TOS. So just Google search it.

      Nice interview Maggie! Good to meet you.

    • Killing Jesus was written by Bill OReilly. Very factual in its content.

    • Just a note, Sandi: Bill Maher is a well-known atheist. Prolly not up your line.

  • Enjoyed seeing you in the spotlight. You sound like a lovely person. Thank you for sharing your profile with us. Meeting folks like you is one of the many reasons I joined Pogo.
