Uh TV?
MEDIUM is about all I watch now. X Files back in the day.
I usually have the TV on as background noise while I am doing something more productive, but I really like to watch Primetime and 20/20 and shows like that. But not the regular news. Oh, and I love Conan O'Brien. He cracks me up. And of course, Gilligan's Island. I love the Skipper.
Neverwhere and Coraline by Neil Gaiman
Even Cowgirls Get The Blues by Tom Robbins
Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
Books on theater
Anything on Greek mythology.
Plays. I definitely read a lot of plays, my favorite being Who Is Afraid of Virginia Woolf and The Wind Is My Mother by Bear Heart (A Native American shaman)
Shakespeare -- I like that guy too. My favorites of his are King Lear and Hamlet.
Hmmm, do these books makes me seem smart?
Anyone with intensity and passion for whatever it is they severely want to do.
