"Well, it's like this - I hate Los Angeles and I love Phoenix." — Amanda Blake

My parents had a Boston terrier, but we never became friends.

I love poking and looking for things for the house, so I make a great many trips to Mexico.

It's a good feeling to be able to help, when help is needed. That's one reason I also went into politics. But by politics I don't mean the smoke-filled room sense, but simply being active in community affairs.

I don't even know how to explain my house, it's so crazy.
