Cooking healthy stuff. Watching the football or cheesy SciFi (go AVP!) while havin a cold brewski with Seen Li. Laughing at the cats who live in my house. Worrying about trying to be Zen. Writing about real people and fake monkeys.
I'd like to meet:
The guy who gives out lottery checks. I'd really like to have a reason to meet him.
Music:
Man, I like it all (yes that includes some country and some rap) Alright, anything that is honest. Classical rules for background; old cowboy songs and Marty Robins tunes make me smile; Dean Martin makes me laugh out loud; Chevelle and Tool and My Chemical Romance make me think and get to the next level on the Stepmill; Dio scares me; Sarah Vaughn melts me; 70's southern rock makes me slap my knee; 70's disco raises my hands and shakes my booty; 80's cheese rock makes me bang my head; The Best of Journey is still the BEST CD of all time! you know it is.the only thing I can't stomach is Pop, blech. All those auto-tuned vocal stylings of a PR created Teen Girl or Boy are just contrived.
Movies:
I am IRONMAN!
Been re-watching The Wall, cause it's awesome. Love the Cohen Bros (except No Country yuck) Love the Sam Raimi directorial stylings of "HELP there is a camera chasing me!" in the Evil Dead movies. Lots of stuff by Takeshi, like Battle Royale. Dig Stephen Chow's Shaolin Soccer and King of Comedy (not the Deniro version). And of course, The Godfather.
Television:
The Soup, Daily Show, Colbert, Reaper, Boston Legal and Metalacalypse. (it's brutal)
Books:
Now I'm reading 'Eat. Pray. Love' It's fun, well-written and making me hungry!Other than the man, gimme an interesting story that is well written and I'm on board. Fav writers are Katherine Dunn, Sherman Alexie and Jonathan Safran Foer. Sherman Alexie could write the phone book and and I'd read it cover to cover. He's a brilliant prose writer and a lovely poet.
Heroes:
Gandhi, MLK jr, Bobby Kennedy, Thich Nhat Hahn, the Dalai Lama, People in General - Life is one tough bugger.
