Music. Good friends, good food, good vibes and good whiskey.
MC Hammer. And your mom.
Nick cave and the bad seeds, Sonic Youth, Son Volt, Ween, Stevie Wonder, Miles Davis, John McLaughlin, Michael Jackson, Jeff Buckley, NIN, Talking Heads, Tenacious D, etc, etc. I could continue to prove how cool I think I am by listing all the obscure bands you haven't heard of but it would bore us both, I'm sure.
Jesus' Son, Big Lebowski, Donnie Darko, Office Space, Life Aquatic, anything by Christopher Guest & Co, Language of Music (Tom Dowd), etc.
Simpsons, Twin Peaks, UCB, Mr Show, ATHF, Kids in the Hall
The Bible, Middlesex, Illusions, Crime and Punishment
Your mom.
