Who are your role models?
Greetings and Felicitations,
Based on a post from Mudwhistle. Who are your role models? They can be real or fictional people. They can be alive or dead? My entries are: Spock. Tenzin Gyatso, 14th Dalai Lama. David Hume. Dan Millman. Sincerely Yours, C. David Neely

Re: Who are your role models?
That's a good question. Pretty much every member of my family. Genghis Khan (don't ask - no, really, don't). Julie Burchill.

My parents for all the good and bad. I've learned so much about what to do and what not to do. They are unperfect, amazing people!
And even my kids. They inspire me everyday.

My youngest is 5 and just started kindergarten. WOW!! She's spunky I learn so much about the little things from her. Nothing gets past her and she is sure to share every bit of it with me. I like to watch her when she thinks no one is watching...last night I got to see a shadow puppet show

My role models are my father, who I know quite well, and his father, who I never really knew at all.

Re: Who are your role models?
Other than my mother (the greatest person I ever knew) and considering public figures, Margaret Thatcher and Condoleezza Rice are excellent role models to me. They are both highly successful women in public service who have their success based on their hard work rather than using any crutch based on being different from the norm of persons in those positions.

Re: Who are your role models?
My role model - the person who wrote the "delete post" function in vBulletin.
I've just put their creation to good use on a bunch of off-topic stuff. Matt
