What is your favourite food? Desert? Etc

I really like Italian food like spaghetti or lasagna. There's also this Midwestern Italian American pasta dish called "Johnny Marzetti" that's one of my favorites.

As for dessert, I love cookies. My favorite types are macadamia cookies and peanut butter cookies. Oh, and cookies are better soft as opposed to hard.

What is your job? If you're too young to have a job, what is your favorite subject in school?

[Tetsuwan Penguin]

Well at the moment I'm between jobs following two layoffs. I am a software engineer, specializing in embedded systems.

Read any good books lately?

I'm reading a book called 'Warrior cats' book 1 and its rather good!

What countries have you being?

[Tetsuwan Penguin]

I haven't traveled much internationally. Besides the US, I've been to Canada and the Bahamas, that's it.

Anyone here have dual citizenship, immigrated to a new country (or have a relative that did)?

[Earthshine]

I do not have duel citizenship but I sometimes wish I did. Most of my family is sadly dead (I am not kidding, my direct family line is limited to 2 people due to a series of interesting events and untimely deaths) so no one has immigrated to a new country. There is a very strong chance though that we will move to either Canada or New Zealand in the future though (I really want to visit Russia though).

What sorts of ethnic backgrounds are in your genetics? Where are your ancestors from?

[CommanderEVE]

English, Irish and German, my grandfather was Irish and my grandmother was English and German. Although I do not know the nationality of my father, I know he lives in either France or Germany and I have a half-sister who is German. But I have an Irish name and most of my family members come from Cork in Southern Ireland.

What three countries would you most like to visit? And why?

[YJ_Doodle]

Scotland, the UK, and Japan. All three are because I'm a fan- Scotland and the UK for How to Train Your Dragon and Japan for Astro Boy! There's also the fact that Japan is a neighboring country to South Korea and I've been wanting to visit at least once. Scotland is somewhere I especially want to go, I've seen pictures of scenery there and it looks breathtaking and has that mysterious streak of nature.

What books do you think deserve a TV show or movie?

[Umbral-Coltwings]

I think the Warriors series. That'll be fun. The whole Firestar arc would be cool.

What's the weirdest/freakiest dream you've had?

[Tetsuwan Penguin]

Any of the adventure novels by Clive Cussler.

Two of his books have been made into movies, but they were poorly done. "Raise the Titanic" was the first, and it eerily predicted the actual finding of the ship more than a decade later. "Sahara" was the second of his novels on the wide screen, poorly acted and scripted, it resulted in a lawsuit between the author and the studio.

I'd like to see Spielberg take a crack at giving the Hollywood treatment to one of his books, maybe one of the 'Oregon' series.

OK we had a collision here!

To answer the now current question...

I recently had a dream that might be described as being right out of a Kurt Vonnegut novel. I kept popping back and forth between different unrelated times, and places. One moment I was back in old time N.Y., and then somewhere in a space age future. The exact details are now a bit fuzzy but I remember feeling very weird upon waking up!

If you could be a character from any book, movie, or T.V. show, which one would it be?

[Earthshine]

.... That's a tough question. Wow. I wouldn't be characters that I like because a lot of the characters I like have horrible, horrible backstories and endings or are villains. So, I suppose if I -had- to pick a character to be it would be the Tim Drake robin from DC Comics, our backstories are similar (neglectful parents, emotionally abusive parents) but there are some things that happen to him that I would not want to be in.

What's one hair style you regret having had?
