Must I continue? I have varied tastes.

As much as I'd love to put as much here as I did in the "Movies" section, there's just too many to name. So, I'll shorten it to three categories.

Classic Rock;
Classical and Baroque Music, and;
A mix of Rock and Classical music

Dante Alighieri

Anne Rice (I don't know why I insist on putting her here, considering I only liked Interview and Pandora)

John Grisham

Tom Clancy

Adam Fawer

Mario Puzo

And from that short list, you can also tell that I have a varied taste in books. That's not even close to all the authors I like, but it should give you an idea.

Sometimes I wonder why I regularly delete everything I've written here. Then I realize: One never stays the same for very long, does it? Well, that's not entirely true, there are many things about me that have remained constant.

I tend to be sarcastic, and sometimes cruelly so - not because I try to be, rather because sometimes no other action is as well-deserved. I like to think of myself as intelligent, I've worked hard to achieve that status. I associate with people based on their intelligence, but this one needs explained:

I will socialize with the smart.
I will socialize with the stupid.
I will socialize with the stupid that wants to be smart.
I will not socialize with the stupid that pretends to be smart.
I will not socialize with the smart that pretends to be stupid.

I can understand people wanting to be something better than what they are, but I cannot tolerate people who pretend to be what they're not. I especially dislike it when they pretend to be smarter when around me.

A lot of people have said I'm intimidating; either because of my intelligence and my eagerness to prove it, or because I can be cruel in many ways. I can come off as being pretentious, but the truth is on the contrary. I am quite welcoming to those willing to approach me, especially those who approach me with sincerity.

With me, no one ever has to pretend to be something he's not. The most important thing is that he's honest with himself and he's honest with me. I respect everyone equally, as a principle: I respect that they live, and I respect that they have hopes and aspirations as I do. The extent of that respect will increase and decrease based on the person's actions - obviously, whether they deserve more or less respect for what they do.

I suppose if there's more that anyone wants to know, the best way to find out is ask.
