Religion: Atheist

Mother Tongue: English

Other Languages Studied: I have made abortive attempts to learn German, Latin, Russian, and Esperanto throughout my childhood.  The only serious attempt to learn a foreign language I've made was the four years of German in I took in high school, but I'm not anywhere close to being fluent. 

Current Location: Oak Ridge, TN

Birthplace: Wakefield, RI, but only because Jamestown, RI, where my parents lived at the time, isn't large enough to have its own hospital.  My mother was born and raised in Independence, MO, and my father in Baytown, TX.

Occupation: Lazy bum.  I graduated from high school in May, and haven't really done anything since.  However, I intend to seriously seek a job after the holidays, and possibly begin college in the fall.

Favorite President: I suppose Lincoln is the least awful.

Political Orientation: I guess social democrat is the best description.

Favorite Foods: Corn chips, cornbread, french fries, cheeseburgers, sourdough bread, cheddar cheese, my dad's macaroni and cheese, turkey, oranges, spaghetti (with meatballs, meat sauce, or marinara - I don't really care.)

Favorite Books: Homage to Catalonia by George Orwell, The Years of Lyndon Johnson: The Path to Power by Robert Caro (I haven't gotten around to reading the rest of it yet), Savage Continent: Europe in the Aftermath of World War II by Keith Lowe

Favorite TV Shows: The West Wing, Community, Lateline, The Daily Show, Northern Exposure, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Democracy Now!

Favorite Radio Shows: A Prairie Home Companion, On the Media, All Things Considered, Fresh Air, The Thistle and Shamrock, Wait, Wait…Don't Tell Me, any of the classical shows on my local public radio station

Favorite Movie: Das Boot

Other Interests: History of broadcasting, linguistics, listening to the radio, reading newspapers, news media criticism

Favorite Color: I don't really have one anymore.

Favorite Sports Teams: I don't really follow sports, but I have some loyalty to my high school's teams (the ORHS Wildcats and Lady Wildcats), the Boston Red Sox (because of where I was born), and the Kansas City Royals (because of my mother)

Favorite Music Genres: Classical (especially baroque, and anything that prominently features harpsichords, guitars, or flutes), '50's/60's oldies, bluegrass, folk

Favorite Game: If this is talking about video games, I like Civilization III, Civilization IV, SimCity 2000, and Oregon Trail, although I don't play much anymore.
 
Do you live by yourself? No, I live with my parents.

Sibling: One sister, who lives in Boston, MA and is trying to be a science writer.

Do you have any nieces, nephews?Sad I do not.

Relationship status: Single, never been on a date in my life, never kissed a girl, etc...

What year did you join Atlas?Sad 2012, though I lurked from about 2010.

Sweet. I'm not in a good enough school to win any big awards or anything but am definitely looking forward to doing more of it in college. It is definitely the nerdiest/dorkiest thing I do.

Age: 24

Gender: Male

Race: White (Italian, Finnish, German, German Jewish)

Religion: Atheism (ex-Catholic)

Height: The doctor's office says 5'6 and 3/4". My New York Driver License says 5'7". My Massachusetts ID says 5'8".

Weight: ~115 lbs (fluctuates between 110 and 120 lbs)

Born: Staten Island, NYC, NY, USA

Location: Staten Island, NYC, NY, USA

Occupation: Writer for a politician's office

Hair and eye color: Blond hair, brown eyes.

Siblings: 1 sister

Relationship Status: Single at present

Member of Atlas since: 16 April 2009

Sexual orientation: Gay

Political ideology: Progressive, with left-libertarianish streak

Personality: I don't know, weird, esoteric, abnormal. My personality varies widely depending both upon my mood on a particular day and on whether I am have taken any medications or drugs that alter my personality. Some days I am extremely introverted shy and quiet, while on other occasions I crave social interaction and can be excessively talkative. 

Languages: I'm fluent only in English, my native language. I've studied Latin, Ancient Greek, Russian, German, Italian, and Arabic, however I've forgotten nearly everything that isn't Latin or Russian (and maybe a tiny bit of German). It doesn't help that I haven't done anything since graduating college to actually practice or study or use any of the foreign languages I studied.

Favorite TV Shows/Movies:  It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, The Office, Game of Thrones

Favorite Video games: Pokemon, easily. No other game has caused me to sink so many hours of my life trying to "catch 'em all" since I received Pokemon Red Version for Christmas as an 8-year-old. I also like fantasy RPGs like the Dragon Age series and Elder Scrolls series. Being immersed in total fantasy worlds like Skyrim- or Johto- to me

Favorite Sports: Hate sports. Tongue

Other interests: Reading (mostly nonfiction but trying to read more fiction), wasting time on the internet, history, politics beyond psephology, theatre (especially musical theatre), poetry (though I'm still too shy to take part in any of the poetry readings I go to), social activism, psychology

Do you live by yourself?: No, unfortunately, due to financial constraints

Have you ever been attracted to a person of the same-sex: Yes

Countries visited: USA (duh), Italy, Austria, Russian Federation, Bahamas, Curaçao (then still part of Netherlands Antilles and technically part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands Tongue)

Favorite Politicians (contemporary):  Joe Manchin, John Kasich, Brian Sandoval, Scott Walker, Andrew Cuomo, Justin Amash, Rand Paul, Heidi Heitkamp........quite the smorgasboard, I know. Tongue

You should probably leave or never mention that again.

Otherwise, most of that other stuff should allow you to fit right in.

What's so bad about Cuomo?  He seems like a pretty reasonable, moderate, pro-business Democrat.

If you've been stalking the Individual Politics section long enough, we had an Andrew Cuomo vs. the World series where this forum voted for Hitler over him in addition to several other unsavory figures. He is a pawn of the Wall Street elite who beat forum darling Zephyr Teachout which becomes even more shameful considering his wonderful father. But you'll learn more soon enough if you venture into that section. I believe another Cuomo poll is about to evoke a response.
