American history, world religion, astrophysics, thermodynamics, quantum theory, relativity, astronomy, world history, European history, starting collections, music. I like a lot of boring things.
People with good interests, some sense, and a great sense of humor. It would also be cool to meet someone who hates O.J. Simpson as equally as I do or more. I have no real preference about who I meet here. Just as long as you meet the criteria and at least have some sort of common interests with me.

In no particular order: Legends of the Fall, A River Runs Through It, Schindler's List, The Majestic, The Patriot, Saving Private Ryan, The Wild Bunch, Vertigo, Rear Window, Apollo 13, The Cider House Rules, Seven Years in Tibet, Casper, Pride and Prejudice (the Colin Firth mini-series), Goldfinger, For Your Eyes Only, The Guardian, The Notebook, Notting Hill, Blazing Saddles, Airplane!, Spaceballs. I am sure that I like more movies than this, but my brain is kind of empty right now.
Jeopardy, Sportscenter, anything on the History Channel, Seinfeld, The Critic, Family Guy, Playmakers, The Simpsons. I think that's about it. I actually probably like more, but it's just so hard to think. Now that I do think about it actually, I have to admit I love TV that comes on at 3 AM. Cheaters, re runs of Dateline, Maury Povich(in fact I run a Maury group), Happy Days, I Love Lucy, Golden Girls*, Designing Women*, Charles in Charge*, I love the classics.
*These were put here by force. If I did not put these on my profile they would have killed me.
I like too many books to list here, but some books I do like are: A River Runs through It by Norman MacLean, Love in the TIme of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia-Marquez, One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia-Marquez, anything by Elie Wiesel. I also like to read about astrophysics, relativity, thermodynamics, and really, just the universe in general.
Wernher von Braun, astronauts, Galileo, Johannes Kepler, Albert Einstein, Enrico Fermi, Norman Maclean, Elie Wiesel, Simon Wiesenthal, my mom, Aristotle, Socrates, Voltaire, Hippocrates, Plutarch, Mickey Mantle, Roger Maris, Lou Gehrig, George Bu-- LOL just kidding. I have a lot of heroes, but I can't list all the people I admire. I mean, I probably could, but you don't want to read them all.
