what is your favorite movie?
what is your favorite book?
where do you lean politically?
Movie- too many to have one favorite, but amongst my favorites are The Dark Knight, Forrest Gump, Fight Club, Inception, Social Network, Too Big to Fail, and pretty much half of the movies Tarantino has made.
Book- again, same issue as above, but fiction is probably The Great Gatsby. I generally prefer reading non-fiction though and there are way too many great books with great ideas to just pick one.
Politically I don't fit neatly into any of the predominant molds of today. On some issues you may consider me right, on others left, I am not a fan of ideologies and don't identify with either party or side (registered independent). Science is my preferred methodology for discerning the truth though and that applies to policy, so facts and data are what sway my opinions. On "morality" types of issues you may call me a social liberal or libertarian. If you want to know specific policy positions feel free to ask.
