Favorite 3 Musical groups/artists of your lifetime: 1. The Who 2. Limp Bizkit 3. Rize (Japanese Nu Metal Band) 4. Snot 5. Max Webster

Your first car: 2001 Subaru Outback 2.5i, blue. did 2 trips to Cincinnati and back with a leaky headgasket.

Your High School Mascot: Our team was the, "Thunder," so we didn't have a mascot lol.

Dog/Cat/Neither: Both, though I'm a Cat guy more. Coco is our current pup (of 8 years, so not quite a pup), a Bolognese.

You are the new Red's leadoff hitter what is your "walkout" song? Walk-up song, not walkout . Don't Test The Master- Buddha Brand

Top 3 War movies: Again, can't do a top because I haven't seen enough, but my 3 favourites are: 1. The Dirty Dozen 2. Inglorious Basterds 3. Saving Ryan's Privates. If fictional wars count, then Independence Day would be tops, the rest follow.

The first novel you read for entertainment: The Magician's Nephew- C.S. Lewis

You are single and in your prime, which Hollywood start are you marrying in their prime: Do you mean star? Pamela Anderson, beyond the shadow of a doubt. Actually, I prefer her in her mid 30s, so if that isn't considered prime, then I would go for Lacey Chabert.

Your dream car: Any year, Nissan Skyline R33 GTR V-Spec N1

You dream vacation: Already had that, 21 days in Japan. At this point, 1 week fishing up and down the Aussie coast.

Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, Denzel Washington, or Samuel L. Jackson: Hang out with one, one's got your back in a fight, one has to be your roommate: Hang, Denzel. Fight, Sam. Roommate, Brad. I'd actually pick Jackson for all 3, but not how the game works.

Favorite Adult Beverage Adults can drink soft drinks): always will be milk or Dr. Pepper

You just bought the Bengals, you must relocate and rename. What is your new Franchise: Toronto Tigers.

Favorite Meal: Anything Mexican, but tacos. The ones I made myself in Mexico were bomb, but the Mango, Beef Mole ones I made (emulating a recipe from Iron Chef Japan) come close.

I've called it that since it came out (thought I was a clever Tween) and I promise from the bottom of my heart, I am not saying it to poke fun or make light of it: I've written about it on here in the past, but I have never bawled from sadness/grief at a film in my life, once they started showing the typewriters after Omaha.

The realisation of how many young men/kids lost their lives and were just pure cannon fodder: these were sons, brothers, friends, uncles, etc., so many killed, so much lost and wasted life, all because a little madman was angry and tried to have fun with the world and people's lives...

It is easily one of the 5 best films I have ever seen, but I will never watch it again. I don't need that kind of sadness to come back
