About npanth

The last year has been quite eventful for me. I’ve started writing again, I’ve lost a bunch of weight. I guess I’m just more interested these days. Photography is one of my favorite hobbies, I love the way it forces me to think about my surroundings. Ah, what else about me? I think science is our best hope, if we practice it right. I think reason can solve almost any problem, except the ones it can’t. I can probably give you an informed discussion about almost any topic, from geology to Quantum Mechanics. I live under a media rock, though. Don’t expect me to know much about a wide variety of things, from the Mtv awards to sitcoms.

I’ve owned some interesting cars:

1983 Jeep CJ7, 1984 Volvo GL, 1984 Honda Accord, 1991 Honda Civic DL, 1989 Ford Bronco XLT, 1994 Ford Explorer XLT, 1998 Ford F150 XLT, 2005 Honda Civic SI

Some movies I like:

Schindler’s List, The Year of Living Dangerously, Star Wars Trilogy, The Shawshank Redemption, Raiders of the Lost Ark, 2001, Amadeus, Il Buono, Il Brutto, Il Cattivo, Matrix, Unforgiven
