It took me about 3 hours to prepare the application online. I do not know if I will be selected, but I have been impressed with the quality of Examiner articles I have read. The Examiners are not only good experts, but the articles are concise and practical. In my online research more and more Examiner articles are returned in search results. Frequently, the best material (well organized, direct, relevant to a complete understanding) is in the Examiner articles. Examiner.com has crafted an excellent Internet model, if you are interested in providing information online, I suggest spending time at their web site and reading articles — it may be for you (and I hope for me!)

I have been drinking coffee since the age of twelve, when my Dad would take me with him to his business meetings. I learned to discern good quality coffee within those first months. Folger's was my favorite. It had that special flavor that just simply tasted great. I love a good cup of coffee. If it's Folger's, it is even better. I love coffee.

I was always the nosy reporter in my school papers. I created gossip columns like "Snoopy Says.." which were eagerly waited for by my fellow students, and feared by some for the information I laid out. It was fun to hide in the trenches and find out who was really with whom, and who was doing what, although some of my stories' stars did not quite agree. Oh, yes! I was very snoopy, allowing curiosity to lead me on the wildest adventures. I morphed into an even bigger busybody with the passing of time. I wrote speeches, helped writers with their books, clued in the clueless, and pointed the finger at what would later become big exposes. Now I am writing a suspense novel about Cuban-Americans, which is steamed in intrigue, power, and more.. I love the freedom of writing, whatever, whenever, or about whomever.
