Saving the world, living with integrity, lambasting post-modern philosophers and mediocre politicians with my wits. Having a beer with good friends. Marketing innovation, building an empire from a great idea, DIY, punk rock, rooting for the underdog, being successfull without selling out to the proverbial "Man", and of course, philosophical discourse with a worthwhile adversary. I also greatly enjoy driving my 2001 GS-R at near light speeds and watching the VW heads cry.

I prefer non-passive forms of entertainment.
Novum Organum by Francis Bacon, Four Essays on Liberty by Issiah Berlin, Coming Up For Air by George Orwell, The Wealth Of Nations by Adam Smith, Modern Philosophy by Roger Scruton, The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera, Cartesian Linguistics by Noam Chomsky, The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand, The Trial, by Franz Kafka, Hotel America by Lewis Lapham, The Origin Of Species by Charles Darwin... In the words of the world's first historian of science, (Francis Bacon) "Ipsa Scientia Potestas Est". So why would I pick just one?
"I am a strong advocate for free thought on all subjects, yet it appears to me (whether rightly or wrongly) that direct arguments against christianity & theism produce hardly any effect on the public; & freedom of thought is best promoted by the gradual illumination of men's minds, which follow[s] from the advance of science. It has, therefore, been always my object to avoid writing on religion, & I have confined myself to science. I may, however, have been unduly biassed by the pain which it would give some members of my family, if I aided in any way direct attacks on religion" -Charles Darwin

"I have sworn upon the altar of God, eternal hostility against every
form of tyranny over the mind of man."
"Shake off all the fears of servile prejudices, under which weak minds are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear."
"Sometimes it is said that man cannot be trusted with the governing of himself. Can he, then, be trusted with the government of others? Or have we found angels in the forms of kings to govern him? Let history answer this question."
Thomas Jefferson
“The greatest threat facing America today is the disastrous fiscal policies of our own government, marked by shameless deficit spending and Federal Reserve currency devaluation. It is this one-two punch-- Congress spending more than it can tax or borrow, and the Fed printing money to make up the difference-- that threatens to impoverish us by further destroying the value of our dollars.â€
