This is ever evolving, but i fuks with 'WARRIORS', as they come out to playyyeeeeyaaaay...the tone of City of Lost Children, La Haine, El Norte, Wild Style, Amores Perros, suits me...'28 DAYS has righteous music.' V:Vendetta = hot...'City of God' is love, gone bad - beautiful. The 3-movie series 'Red', 'White' & 'Blue' are lovely. J Cliff's "THE HARDER THEY COME". Animated toons, whether Disney, Anime, Woody Woodpecker, Heavy Metal or Tripl o' Bellville, Madagascar...other dark or light pieces that make me believe...
TV - don't have one - NOO time really...not a hater though: 'House' is fly...I work on a still dig 'Law and Order'...Make-ova (people, homes, yards, dogs) shows are always fun..Ol' school movies (60's spy shows are the 'ISHHH, SEXY sexy), yah, yah...
Fucking A (which IS a book), Hamlet & Medea(always), Zephyr(Dondi), House of Leaves...I am Legend...Most Anais N, Pablo N...Salman Rushdie, Didion, Lowry, McCarthy and some theatrical writers (go!, go!) are groovy as well, but so are Kan Kick's liner notes. Strauss, Covey and Chopra have opened my eyes on a few things too.
It's cliche, but mi' parents (MASSV LOVE & RESPECT, E' (RIP) & J') are the bravest souls I've known or read about - true respect of the highest form. The sun, the wind, the rain, the snow, the sky, the night. Cucumbers. The underdog.
