•  The last 5 books you read (don't lie!). Are these books typical of you?:  I don't read books often, so I am going to the best of my recollection:  The Death of Money, The Creature from Jekyll Island, Dissolving Illusions, No Second Place Winner, and the Aubrey-Maturin series.

•  Favorite movies/TV shows:  Not really interested.
•  Favorite foods:  Eastern European and homecooked.
•  Serious pet peeves:  loud eating noises
•  Pets you have, pets you desire, pets you'd put up with:  I don't generally approve of pets since the typical role of a pet is "member of family".  I heartily disagree with that type of mis-treatment of animals.  I do not mind dogs.  I like cats.  I'm fine with any animal hanging around as long as it is treated as an animal, even better if it has a constructive purpose.
•  Idea of a romantic evening:  I'm not really into "romance".  I don't get it.  If I were to default to the description of an ideal pleasant evening shared with another person, I'd say a serious plinking competition or bogging motorcycle ride followed by lying under the stars (obviously somewhere without chiggers) and reminiscing or discussing a serious interest.
