I am bright, witty, and interesting.
My Self-Summary
I was born in Michigan and have lived all around the USA, but I
have now chosen to settle in the beautiful island of Puerto Rico.
My interests are varied: I read a lot, especially 20th century
history, math and science, as well as English and American
literature.
I’m really good at
math and creating software. I also like to cook and build things; I
only wish there was an Ikea here in PR, I can assemble any of their
furniture you could think of.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books: Serious historical works, anything to do with math or
physics, science fiction. Robert Heinlein is my favorite author,
closely followed by Arthur C. Clarke. I also like reading the
classics, as well as contemporary American and British
writers.
Movies: There hasn't been much in the theaters that I have
liked.
Music: Mostly, I listen to Rock (mostly progressive, but I also
like punk and mainstream classic), Classical (especially Baroque),
Jazz and experimental music. I don't follow most of the popular
music being put out now, and it has been about 15-20 years since I
have picked up a copy of Rolling Stone.
Food: Italian, Chinese and Indian are my favorites.
The six things I could never do without
- A connection to the Internet. One time, the DSL that I get
through the phone company died, and I had to go to Starbuck's with
a notebook in order to go online. The outage lasted a week, and it
was completely their fault.
- Books. I love to read, and I enjoy most any topic, as long as
it is serious and interesting. So, I will not read celebrity
biographies, because I don't really care about their problems and
they are uniformly boring. But I do enjoy history, math and
science, and economics, especially when they are written in a
scholarly manner.
- My cats. I like animals, especially cats. The two that I have
can be annoying but also interesting. Just like people.
- Good food. It has been years since I set foot in a fast food
place. It's just that most of the food they serve there is really
nasty. I cook for myself on most nights and I try to use the best
ingredients that I can find. For instance, I grow my own mint so
that I can make mojitos.
That's all I can think of for right now. I will come back later and
add another two.
