Music:
I like just about anything that isn't country, rap, R&B, or angry death metal. In particular, I am a big fan of most 80s music, easy rock, alternative and indie, some classical, some techno, and jazz. Musically, I'll try just about anything once.
Movies:
Favorite Old Movie(s): Arsenic and Old Lace
Favorite Current Movie(s): Shrek, Office Space, The Wedding Singer
Favorite Independent Film: Pi
Television:
Futurama (MY FAVORITE!!!), The Simpsons, Sex and the City, The 4400, Nip/Tuck, X-Files, How I Met Your Mother, Two and a Half Men, Heroes, Iron Chef: America, Rescue Me, and because I really am a dork, Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, and Star Trek: TNG. Bear in mind that I really don't watch all that much TV, but when I come knocking on Tivo's door, this is usually what he has for me. :)
Books:
As far as fiction goes, I like anything by the following authors: Ayn Rand, Edgar Allen Poe, Kurt Vonnegut, Robert Penn Warren, F. Scott Fitzgerald. Most of the stuff I read these days is educational reading related to the topics in my "Interests" section. Sometimes, I even buy cook books for the pretty pictures. =P
Heroes:
Possibly Albert Einstein.
