The wreckage of urban decay. Warm summer nights. Reading. Designing. Traveling. Michigan Football. Gothic architecture. Black. Shades of Gray. Dualism. Eastern thought. Playing rekkids. Tolerance. Diversity. Infinity. Hockey - watching and playing. Photography. Delectable muffins. Soft skin. Chocolate. Cooking. Bucking social convention. Snowboarding owns (preferably out West - riding on trash dumps leaves me rather wanting). Hiking / Camping. Sailing. Giger. Van Gogh. Kandinsky. Dirty martinis.

Kill your TV. The new opiate for the masses is thought control. If you are not sure what to think, TV is for you. Contrived bullshit crafted to engage your feeble attention span, instilling the unfulfilling desire to hoard useless shit you don't need. The lifelong endeavor to satiate the void inside with material goods is the ultimate exercise in futility. (Rhetoric aside, thumbs up to The Colbert Report and The Daily Show.)
Life of Pi. Electric Kool Aid Acid Test. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Dean Koontz. Flashbacks (Leary's autobiography). Brave New World. Fear and Loathing (and anything else Hunter Thompson). The Things They Carried.
