I calculated lbs from kgs wrong (I went kgs*2-10% rather than kgs*2+10%), as I noticed when Soult claimed to be twice my weight. Should be about 175.

With that ethnicity mix I bet she is hot. To bad her politics completely stink.

Huh? What? Politics? No, I wouldn't complain about those either.

I didn't see that about the age. I'll have to change the profile as I AM 22.

Aren't Texasgurl and Shira women?

TexasGurl is a couple of years older...Shira a woman? I never noticed. I don't go checking everybocy's profiles...

Age: 28

Religion: Not a member of any formal religious group, and never will be. Deist / Pantheist.
Height: 6'0"
Weight: 185
Location: Frankfurt, Germany
Occupation: Work as a gardener and occasionally as a freelance translator.
Party of Choice: Green or Left - both have some pretty forbidding weaknesses, sadly.

Favorite Book: Too many to list - much of Leo Perutz' works, Flann O'Brien, Zazie dans le Métro, The Corrections, The God of Small Things, Fight Club...
Favorite Movie: My usual answer is "The Nine Lives of Tomas Katz", but that's as much to do with its utter obscurity and weirdness as with the fact that I love it insanely. The movie I've seen the most often and would again, like a shot, is probably either Dead Man or Ghost Dog - Way of the Samurai or Kids.

Gender: Male
Age: Under... er... um... under 25. Yes. That should do.
Race/ethnic compostion: Welsh/English. Stick "British" on any forms covering this sort of thing as they never allow multiple choices. Going back a long way quite a bit of French. And going back not very far at all, something else that I don't actually know.

Ovid genes, maybe?

Ooh, a fellow Hessian! Welcome! *hughughug*

Whereabouts "near Darmstadt"? (You don't have to be too precise if you don't want to. Just like, basically, Weiterstadt/Pfungstadt? Seeheim-Jugenheim or thereabouts? Or more towards Dieburg etc?)

[minionofmidas]

If you could pick your own nationality, what nationality would you pick? I like being Italian, but I'd love to be a minority to get better financial aid

Stupid state! Your race shouldn't matter when they give financial aid.

Yes, that's weird. That's just in NJ or in US as a whole?

That's just in his personal parallel universe.

[minionofmidas]

Will Stark pursue a final solution to the United States' Jewish Question?
And will he start at his own door?

Stay tuned...
