I'm going to go ahead and assume the reason you have an Ayn Rand novel in your bookshelf is the same reason I have an Ayn Rand novel in my bookshelf: because your dad gave it to you in a haphazard attempt to convert you to his worldview.
Drill King:
Actually I had to read it for school and ended up thinking it was really interesting, I don't like her other books though.
Reed:
Someone earlier asked for pictures of workplaces, and I seem to be the only one who is going to oblige:
My bench is the one on the left, my desk is just past it (of course I have the only desk without a nice, big window that our building is covered with)
It's amazingly clean today, normally it's cluttered with plates, flasks, beakers and a gel rig or two. Unfortunately nobody was in the lab when I took it, so no bonus points for me
Liz:
All of these images can be clicked on for larger sizes (yay detail!)
Here are my movies and books:
And my desk:
The only thing hanging on my walls (thank goodness it is rad). It looks crooked because the picture is taken at an angle. I actually had to stand in my dining room and take the picture through the doorway to get the whole thing in the frame!
Aaaand my shoe collection. :-D
Athletic-type shoes (they don't get worn very often). Favorites here are the lime green and plaid pairs.
Flats! The leopard print ones are the best. So comfortable!
Boots, sandals, wedges (the "etc" group, if you will). Black boots and gold sandals are favorites here.
And my heels. Oh I love them. It is hard to pick one favorite, really. I love the purple fuzzy pair, the white wedges, the ridiculous bright colored pair, and the turquoise and brown pair.
And last but not least, Halloween costume!

Your dad wanted you to believe that rape is an acceptable form of expressing one's individualism and will be seen as such and even respected by the victim if in fact she is also a fully authentic person who recognizes the value in individualism? Ayn Rand is utterly ridiculous. The Fountainhead is unintentionally valuable for its philosophy of aesthetics; barring that everything she ever wrote was tripe in terms of being a valuable way of looking at society at large, individual interactions, or even as just a general piece of fiction. Ugh... But I digress. Nice bookshelves.
