I'd say.... Alexander the Great for how he took revenge on the Persians. How he let ordinairy people in the conquered areas just continue their lives mostly. Plus the fact that he was taught all sorts of things by Aristotle (education). It's been said Alexander disliked Aristotle quite a bit but I don't know. Wikilink Alexander the Great

Do you like reading books about history in general?

Yes.

Are you interested in a particular period of history? E.g. 18th century...

At one stage I was obsessed with the Mob and 1930's U.S.

Talking about the mob, what's your fav gangster movie?

Said it before, I think thus repeating myself, but I really like 'The Godfather' trilogy. part 1 and 2 more than the third. The third makes me somewhat paranoid. That's the feel I get watching it, the feel of that movie. But, imo, all three are masterpieces by FF Coppola.

Do not watch that much movies anymore but the mob/ gangster genre is probably one of my favourite.

Um, what is your favourite movie genre? (may I ask)

I like science fiction, visual movies, police movies, French movies and any other films that shows me new things or a new point of view.

hm, yeah let's talk some more about movies ...
what do you do and how do you feel when there is a tension moment in a movie? (like you know something is going to happen but it doesn't just yet)

I simply say it out loud just before it happens, lol! Then my husband replies "You have seen ALL MOVIES as you know what will happen!! !
But of course I havent seen all movies. There is just some that I can feel by common sense what will happen next

I continue on the movie theme as I believe there is much to say around it!

Do you have a favourite movie that you can watch over and over and over regularly ( maybe with a couple of years in between) and still dont get tired of it? Simply an internal classical one! If so, what movie is it?

I could make lists of that probably... let's pick a theme... : the desert


I'd like to see 'Dune' once again

Lawrence of Arabia

The English patient


same question (another theme?)

Fight Club, I always seem to be able to watch Fight Club. It's just one of those things, I never get sick of it. I seem to feel so differently about it everytime that I watch it, therefore it's like watching a whole new movie, as I have a whole new experience everytime.

I could probably come up with more that I love to watch, as I do have alot of favorite movies. However, that is the first one that came to my mind, so it probably is the most accurate answer.



When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I wanted to be a policeman.

This was because, as a child, I knew that some people would be locked in prison, but I didn't understand the concept of crime so I assumed that the police just arrested anybody. I didn't want to be arrested, and I thought the best way to avoid it would be to become a police officer myself.

What was the last animal that you saw? (This is not including human beings)

as i now look out the window, there is a bird on the chimney of the neighbours,
my mother in law's black cat was the animal closer to me, half an hour ago.

cute question, i repeat it...

It was a cat in some animated GIF involving a cat flap that had been plastic-wrapped.
As for real animals, No idea. I'm not on the lookout for them, and there's nothing more than flies and pigeons on campus.

---
Did you ever play a musical instrument?

Nope I'm not patient enough to learn.

What is your favourite form of exercise?

Walking. I'm a great fan of walking.

~

If you could visit any building in history, to which would you go?

Alamogordo City Landfill, New Mexico, September 1983. Atari video game burial. Why: Just to see how many trucks it took to bury all that.

I shall repeat the above question.

The IMAX cinema.


Favourite passtime?

atlantis! is that history? well then tesla's laboratory at wardenclyffe.


which would you choose and why? to be a ghost, to be deaf blind and mute, to have no sense of smell or taste or sensation of the skin?
