1. Reply to this post, because I would like to say a couple words about you. Lessee here... Well, James, I consider myself to be extremely lucky to have run across your LJ. One of the few times I used the "random" function and I struck virtual gold. You're obviously passionate about your family, politics, and those around you. It's something that I admire immensely about you, that you can intelligently dissect what's going on out there and post so eloquently about it (although at times you seem to doubt your posting prowess; why? I don't know). That, and you come across as a fuckin' fun person to knock a beer (or two, or three...) back with and just chill. That's key. You're a cool dad. *grin*
2. I will also tell you what song(s) remind me of you when I hear it. The main song that reminds me of you? Quite obviously Falco's Der Kommissar. A given. And for some random reason Led Zeppelin's cover of When the Levee Breaks. I think I might have gotten my first play of it while reading something you wrote and it's just...stuck.
3. I will also tell you what fictional character you remind me of, either personality-wise or looks-wise. Looks...this is hard. If you weren't smiling in your icon pic I'd have to say Professor Snape ala Harry Potter. Because I'm reaching. I've got nothing, man.
4. I will also give ONE WORD that I associate with you when I think of you. Cool.
Or, to be more accurate (since this is me we're talking about) "kewl!"
