All About Ralph

This was quite a challenge! You could call it - My potpourri! It will give other "Soupers", a little glimpse, of what it is that makes me - me! I spent 21 years in the Air Force. One year in Vietnam. Been to several Foreign Countries, thanks to Uncle Sam! I love classic country music, like Jim Reeves and Johnny Cash. I enjoy the older sitcoms, like "Golden Girls" and "MASH"! What's my favorite movie? "Driving Miss Daisy", I must say! My favorite singer is, Dean Martin, even though he passed away. Meatballs and Spaggetti, that's my favorite dish. I kinda favor, Italian food, but I sure do not, like fish! Baseball hats, on backwards, and drivers on their "cell", Tattoos, lip and nose rings, bug me all-to-Hell! I love golf and watching baseball. I'm a die-hard Yankee fan. I love to snack on Oreo cookies, and "Cadbury chocolate, when I can! I have an addiction to cruising. December is when I go. It's on "Royal Caribbean" or "Carnival" lines, for the last 10 years in a row! Ralph Taylor 05/23/12

Thank you, Judy! Classic country is all I listen to - Merle Haggard, George Jones, Charlie Pride, etc. Got no time for this modern day "so-called" country! To me it's just noise! Listened to Grapevine and enjoyed it! Thanks again for you comments! Hugs, Ralph
