HOUSE MUSIC when I'm in the mood to "feel it" - Jazz when I'm in the mood to "chill" and have a cold glass of "Gran Marnier" - and Luther Vandross or Sade, and some scented candles, when it's time to get cozy with the ladies. (smiles) - I listen to Hip-Hop, but only if it's conscious ("Common" or "Mos Def") and NOT laced with the "N" word. I HATE that word with a passion!
I LOVE movies that have social impact, such as "CRASH". I also like movies that REALLY make you think, like a good murder mystery or "Fahrenheit 911". Oh, I also love a REALLY good vampire movie. I have a major obsession with vampires, and they don't make good "stakers" any more. (smiles)
I don't watch much TV, but when I do I watch the following: (1)"Boston Legal" ("Denny Crane!!!!!") (2)"Nip/Tuck" (3)"JEOPARDY" (4)Anything that is informative and thought-provoking, such as CNN, "Like it Is", "Meet the Press", "The McLaughlin Group", "60 Minutes" or the History Channel.
I'm hooked on sensual/erotic thrillers. ("Basic Instinct")
