    1. Thanks so much, Kritika! What is your favorite song of each? Mine for LP – Lost on You and Pink – Raise Your Glass (so much so I had “We will never be, never be anything but loud” tattooed on my left arm. ) 🙂

      1. LP: Numb; I do not know why but this song just touches me.
        Pink: A latest release it is. ‘Hurts to be Human.’ ‘Try’, ‘Just give me a reason’
        Need to hear the ones you mentioned. Today will surely Spotify these songs. 🙂

      2. I was wondering why I couldn’t find it! You meant Linkin Park! And while I love that song too, I meant LP – Laura Pergolizzi. LOL Here’s the two different versions of Lost on You. Both are incredible!

  6. Great answers and really thought provoking questions. I’ll play:
    What is the hardest thing about facing your fears? Knowing I can’t out run them.
    What do you hope you are remembered for? My kindness and patience.
    Name three of your favorite achievements. Son#1, Son#2, Out lasting SWMNBN at work!
    Who encourages you the most? Sparky
    If you could travel anywhere and money were no object, where would you go and for how long? I would do a world tour visiting every continent and every country and getting at least one geocache in each country! I’d probably start at the bottom of the world and move north…
    If you knew the date of your death, what two things would you make sure to do before you died? Tell all my friends and family that I love them and take the sacraments at church.
    What is your favorite ethnic food? Indian? Chinese? Thai? Venezuelan? Mexican? I can’t decide.
