Yes, somehow I was able to predict your favourite movie. :D

I realized as I was answering the poetry question that most of the poems I know by heart are about death. *ponders what this says*

Mark Sheppard is awesome. In any role.

I love the dinosaur story! It was ancient history class in high school that really affirmed atheism for me, although I'd drifted pretty far from religion before that.

What's your favorite cliche?
I dunno. If I heard a list, I could probably pick one for ya. :P

Which poem do you know by heart?
None. I suck at poetry and making words sound beautiful and rhythmic.


What is the book that changed your life?
Bible.

What is your all-time favorite film?
Hmm, that's hard. I have a favorite in different genres, but I don't know if I have one that trumps every movie ever. I do enjoy the Batman films (old and new).

Who is your favorite villian?
The Joker.

Who would you like to see play you in a film about your life?
Someone awesome like me or that doesn't let fame go to their head.

What is your favorite hour of the day?
M-F--5p when I get off work. Weekends, probably the morning time... start of a good day!

HAPPY CANADA DAY!

(I'm still up and it's still July 1st somewhere, so it totally counts.)

What's your favorite cliche? Do I have a favourite? Uh...how about "cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey." It's nice and colourful. And it's fun to say.
Which poem do you known by heart? "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night" by Dylan Thomas
What is the book that changed your life? Sex and Temperament in Three Primitive Societies by Margaret Mead. I know that a lot of questions have been raised about the validity of her research, but at the time I read it, it really influenced my perception of gender and socialization.
What is your all-time favorite film? Let's go with The Hanging Garden. Although I haven't watched that in years...I wonder if it would still hold up?
Who is your favorite villan? I don't really love enough villains to rank 'em.
Who would you like to see play you in a film about your life? Ha! Uh...Jennifer Garner?
What is your favorite hour of the day? In winter, I like mornings. 10am or so. In summer I like evenings, around 8 or 9pm. Totally a seasonal thing for me.
