The Arctic Circle in Alaska was nothing like I had expected.

What is your favorite movie and why?
That is a tough question, however, there is a three way tie for my favorite movie "Back to the Future" parts one, two and three. Those movies are a great mix of comedy, drama and imagination.

If you had the opportunity to meet anyone in the world, who would it be and why?
Out of anyone in the world, I would want to meet Former President John F. Kennedy. In his short time in office, he was able to accomplish so much.
