    Sneakers unless I'm at work, or it's warm enough to go barefoot. Boots not all that often, and sandals hardly ever.

    Dark City, Blade Runner or Limitless?

    Blade Runner, still a classic

    Having experienced all three, LASIK. Nothing short of miraculous.

    Apollo. The whole history of the manned space flight program is fascinating, but setting foot on the moon is arguably the coolest thing the human race has ever accomplished.

    Romney, Perry, or Bachmann?

    Since I'm a big Obama supporter, I hope the GOP nominee will be Bachmann, because of the three I think she'd lose by far the worst. If I had to vote for one of them myself on their merits, though, I would - very reluctantly - go for Romney.

    Federalist, Democratic-Republican or Whig?

    Anti-slavery, laughably disorganized, awesome name? Yes please! Give me Whiggery or give me death.

    Pumpkin with a little whipped cream, please, although my wife makes a damn fine apple pie.

    Bentley, Rolls or Cadillac?

    Dirty weekend. The others are fine, but I haven't had a dirty weekend in a long, long, time.

    Ocean, just to stand on the beach and look out....

    Just for Hatshepsut: Get out of my mind, go and enjoy a long dirty weekend away and I'll take the lolcatz.

    I like 'em all, actually, but I'll go with John, the name of one of my three sons.

    Seventies, I guess. Hard to choose, but there's more hard rock in the seventies.

    Music from the 80's, 90's, or the oughts?

    Eighties, but more for nostalgia than because it's "good music."

    Scissors, stapler or tape dispenser?

    Mowing the lawn, although I don't mind the other chores too much.

    Kramer vs. Kramer.

    Atonement I guess; the more olde-tymey costumes don't really suit her.

    Jude Law in The Talented Mr. Ripley, Closer, or Sherlock Holmes?

    Hey, I thought I got to ask all the Keira Knightley questions around here! (I'd answer P&P, for what it's worth).

    I've only seen Sherlock Holmes of those three Jude Law movies, so I'll say that (although he was very good in A.I., too, I thought).

    Graphic novels: The Arrival, Watchmen or V for Vendetta?

    Depends on what kind of shirt, but I do like striped shirts generally.

    (No, I've seen none of those films either).

    Kilt, sari or muumuu?

    I have an Indiana Jones-style fedora I like to wear now and then, so I'll say that.

    Nelson. A classier guy than the other two, and died at the pinnacle of his fame and achievement, leaving behind a smokin' hot mistress (http://historical-fiction.com/wp-con...0/12/emma1.jpg). It's hard to top that.

    Emma Hamilton, Cleopatra or Evelyn Nesbit?

    Only seen bits and pieces of Blackadder over the years, so I'll say... II. Did I choose well?

    Wally. Oh, Zog, how I love Wally! Wally Wally Wally, balding slacker genius with bad hair and a permanently-attached mug of coffee. Oh, Wally, you almost always make me laugh, and for that, you have my gratitude.

    Dunno any of those! But "Sly Raccoon" is an intriguing name, so I'll go with that.

    Christmas, definitely Christmas. But I like the other holidays plenty, too.

    Apple cider, hot cocoa or eggnog?
