Probably just easier to list things I'm not interested in. Textiles, a career as a mortician or doctor, cars, HVA/C, and religion.
Stephen Malkmus, Mike Nelson, John Cleese, Isaac Brock, and Bill Murray... assuming the agreed upon limit on listing people is 5... which I've always felt is a good place to stop.
The Arcade Fire, Bright Eyes, The Clash, The Cure, Depeche Mode, Dinosaur Jr., The Flaming Lips, The Impossibles, Interpol, Less Than Jake, Modest Mouse, Muse, Pavement, The Pixies, The Postal Service, Radiohead, Slowreader, Stephen Malkmus, They Might Be Giants, The Weakerthans, Ween, Wilco, etc...
Ooohhh... Cohen Bros., Wes Anderson, Sam Raimi, Charlie Kaufman... those kinds of things.
Despite owning a TiVo, I watch very little television. Mainly just Adult Swim, Daily Show, Reno 911, and... Poker... the thinking man's Nascar.
Ahh yes... I vaguely remember this analog medium of information/entertainment delivery. When I do read, it's usually Douglas Adams or Mike Nelson books. I'd really like to get my hands on some David Sedaris stuff.
