I am interested in everything for at least 30 seconds. After that, my interests are as follows: story-telling, philosophizing, people, tipping-points, literature (right now it's science-based anthropoligical fiction), people, art that has something to say, individual and world-wide struggles, politics, and did I mention PEOPLE?

Music:
I like good music of all kinds, but if I must list, here goes: The blue-grass of Hank Williams, old-country like Patsy Cline, Kitty Wells, Kenny Rogers, Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash, Conway Twitty, Willie Nelson, Loretta Lynn, and Dolly Parton. George Harrison of the Beatles. Then there's the 70's. I LOVE the 70's. Bad Co, Jimmi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin, Deep Purple, CCR, Lynard Skynard, Steve Miller Band, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, The Eagles, Pink Floyd, AC/DC, these are all sooo good. Ahhhh, the 80's. Pat Benatar, Devo, Kraftwork, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, The Pretenders and more, more, more. The 90's gave me Pearl Jam, the Beastie Boys, Madonna, Radiohead, Rage Against the Machine, Prince, Peter Gabriel, Blind Melon, Marilyn Manson, Ministry, 4 Non Blondes, Helmet... that was my "hard" phase. Then, I got soft. Dance music and lots of it. Underworld, Sander Kleinenberg, Daft Punk, Kruder & Dormeister, Kraftwork, and more. I am loving Wolfmother, James Morrison, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Zero 7, Antony and the Johnsons, QOTSA, Ben Harper, Green Day, James Blunt, etc. Oh, I also like rap.
