    Independence Day - dreadful film though it is. It's just too much fun.

    Batteries, Wind up or Charger?

    Wind-up, unless it's an actual useful device I depend on. Otherwise, clockwork is indescribably charming.

    Emerson, Thoreau, or Whitman?

    uuuuugghgghghghhhh ...

    Emerson, I guess. (Thoreau annoys me, and whatever unique thoughts I ever had about Whitman have been long-since overshadowed by Homer Simpson yelling, "I! Hate! You! Walt! Freaking! Whitman! Leaves of Grass, my ass!")

    Baroque, Classical, or Romantic?

    I'll go with romantic. But it's a tough choice. Late classical/early romantic would be my actual choice. The last of Beethoven's piano sonatas, foreshadowing the romantic period - that's the best.

    Grilled, boiled, or fried?

    Fried. But maybe grilled, depending on the foodstuff.

    Soup, salad, or breadsticks?

    Like 'em all, but soup by a nose: tomato, chicken noodle, hot and sour, clam chowder, or any kind of seafood bisque, if you please. Yum.

    Love Actually, Man of La Mancha or Notorious?

    Sedan. I'm boring like that.

    Chili cheese. But I'd rather have a brat or a polish sausage.

    Rembrandt, Vermeer, or Caravaggio?

    Butterfingers, I guess. Not a huge fan of any of them.

    Garter snakes, pythons or rattlers?

    In terms of being willing to touch one, garter snakes (and I have). In terms of coolness, rattlers.

    The Onion Field, Pinocchio or The Queen?

    I enjoyed The Queen far more than I expected to.

    Ginger ale. It's always good, especially when I'm sick. Cream soda is nice, but too sweet for every day. Fresca is what the demons offer the damned in Hell.

    Blue ink, black ink, or green ink?

    Black ink. I work in a medical office, and non-black pens are the bane of my existence.

    Total oblivion - in terms of what I believe is the most likely. (As to what I'd want, I suppose heaven sounds good, although I'd have to read up to be sure)

    Paper cut, canker sore, or bunion?

    I like 'em all, and it depends on what else is being served with them, but... cole slaw. If it's the creamy, non-vinegary kind.

    Underdog, Veggie Tales or While You Were Sleeping?

    While You Were Sleeping. The other two are...even worse.

    Ooo, that's a toughie. Love 'em all. If I had to choose, though... shrimp.

    Yojimbo - love a good samurai story.

    Wimbledon, Roland-Garros or Queens?

    I'm not a huge tennis fan under the best of circumstances, but watching people play tennis on grass or dirt is extra silly. Give me Queens.

    Water polo. I am endlessly intrigued by how they train the horses to hold their breath that long.

    Boxing, wrestling or fencing?

    I think all three are cool, but I was a wrestler myself in high school, and retain a fondness for the cauliflower-eared sport in my heart.

    Gas, grass, or ass? (No one rides for free!)

    Each have their uses. But given the choice of touching the finest variety of any, I'll take ass every time.

    MGD 64. That's the one that tastes like horse-piss, right?

    The Odd Couple, because it's the only one I've seen.
