I'd like to meet:
Calvin Coolidge…
Both his dry Yankee wit and his frugality with words became legendary. His wife, Grace Goodhue Coolidge, recounted that a young woman sitting next to Coolidge at a dinner party confided to him she had bet she could get at least three words of conversation from him. Without looking at her he quietly retorted, "You lose."
Music:
Steel drums, screeching cats, and bagpipes.
At the same time.
Maybe with some shattering glass in the background.
Looped over Tibetan monks chanting.
To a Rush-esque drum solo.
With a funky-ass bassline.
I pride myself on eclecticity.
Skeedunt stunt the runt smokin' buddha blunts
Skeedunt stunt the runt
Movies:
I'm not sure how this short movie could be any cooler. This is, assuredly, an example of inverse NEDM.
Fight scenes from The Protector.
Television:
Nah, haven't watched TV in years.
No. Seriously. I don't watch television. Dude, I'm not kidding.
Well...some exceptions:
Family Guy. Futurama. Simpsons. Shit, Wallace and Grommit too. Rome. The Wire. Oh, and on the real, dog--Deadliest Catch is cool: $16 grand for 80 hours of work? Catching crabs? In the icy waters of the Bering Sea? ... Can a niggah get a table dance? Where do I sign up?
South Park? ... Sometimes.
"I don't want to go on a rant, here, but America's foreign policy makes about as much sense as Beowulf having sex with Robert Fulton at the first battle of Antietam. I mean when a neo-conservative defenestrates it's like Raskolnikov filibuster deoxymonohydroxinate..."
Books:
Any.
All.
East of Eden … first "Favorite" book to come to mind.
Centennial … last tome-sized book read.
Catcher in the Rye … Will name my first daughter, if I ever have one, Phoebe; fuck you!, that name rocks.
John Steinbeck … Did not just publish a new book, as I once witnessed a Border's customer insist to a hapless employee, as Steinbeck has, sadly, been dead for 39 years.
Heroes:
Scipio Africanus
Charlemagne
Thomas Edison
Max Planck
Erwin Schrödinger
George Patton
Erwin Rommel
Franz Zwicky
Mighty Mouse
