I enjoy the simple things in life like drawing with crayons, solving meaningless math proofs, jumping off large buildings into swimming pools, backrubs, wearing a cape, drinking cheap wine and singing pirate songs while sailing down the Truckee in an under-inflated raft. Other than that I love to paint, hike, play Go (the board game), eat rare steak soup at Pho 777, cartoon, drink wine and watch movies, and design websites for the sake of shameless self-promotion.

Airplane.
Doesn't that shit rot your brain?
When it comes to reading I'm a total bibliophile, which is a pedantic way for saying that I'm a perverted book molester. I'll read anything that knocks my socks off, from Harry Potter to Ayn Rand to The Hitchhiker's "Trilogy" to nihilistic philosophy to crazy mind bending math proofs. Books of sufficient size also make great weapons for bludgeoning!
