I'd like to meet:
Anyone who expresses integrity towards, appreciation of, and respect for others. However, I do not accept random add requests unaccompanied by a message (which I find inconsiderate - I do not have time to try to figure out why you want to add me) and I usually will only add individuals if I have met them, they are friends-of-friends, or they are legitimate network contacts.

Movies:
Buying DVDs is my weakness. I enjoy period dramas and psychological thrillers (particularly foreign / indie). Favorites since childhood are Watership Down , The NeverEnding Story , Anne of Green Gables , The Princess Bride , The Dark Crystal , and The Secret of NIMH . Also love Dirty Dancing , Mystic Pizza , Ever After , The Wedding Singer , Never Been Kissed (yes, I love Drew; also have Fever Pitch , Riding in Cars with Boys , and Charlie's Angels ), Under the Tuscan Sun , Mona Lisa Smile , Hamlet , First Knight , The Crow , Spider , The Dreamers , The Last Broadcast , and Head Trauma .Others in my collection include: Girl With a Pearl Earring , Love Actually , Pride and Prejudice , Trauma (mmm... Colin Firth), The Adventures of Sebastian Cole , The Shipping News , Iris , Pan's Labyrinth , Young Adam , The Gift , Swing Kids , Asylum , Quills , From Hell , Sleepy Hollow , Rinne (Reincarnation) , and Betty Blue . Although I don't own it yet (nor have I read it, like Caroline has), thanks to the popularity of the LOTR trilogy, most people finally know what I'm talking about when I say I was named after a hobbit, haha! Recently saw and enjoyed The Illusionist and The Holiday .
Television:
Agatha Christie's Poirot ( schedule ). We only get very basic (15 channels) cable, so pretty much just local ( WMUR ) news, Grey's Anatomy (b/c Denise makes me watch it... haha, j/k... I would anyway), and reruns of Friends, Will & Grace, That 70's Show, Scrubs, and King of Queens and I have The Critic series on DVD. If we HAD full cable, I'd watch Forensic Files, The New Detectives, and Body of Evidence. I don't do CSI or "reality" TV.
Books:
Watership Down , The Healthwise Handbook , A Book of Nonsense , Faeries , American Folklore and Legend (Reader's Digest, 1978), All Creatures Great and Small , and I Never Promised You a Rose Garden . Just finished After Long Silence ; currently reading The Mummy Congress .
Magazines / Newsletters: Consumer Reports , Nutrition Action , Psychology Today , Scientific American Mind , Taste Of Home , Cook's Illustrated
Heroes:
My family, for instilling in me senses of responsibility (Dad), adventure (Mom), independence (Caroline), and sincerity (Steph); my friends; and all people who protect and promote the well-being of others (particularly those I've volunteered and worked with in the EMS & Fire Services).
