Music:
Dave Matthews, KISS, Madonna, Matisyahu, Beck, Rick James, Daft Punk, Nine Inch Nails, Rolling Stones, Jem, Stevie Wonder,....basically, a whole bunch of different stuff. I actually listen to country sometimes--thanks to a 2-year stint of living in North Carolina, love KCRW in the evenings, 103.1 independent radio is good...
Movies:
Any Cameron Crowe flick (either Singles or Almost Famous is my favorite), most Kevin Smith films (Mallrats is def. my fave), Jonh Cusak movies (Better off Dead, The Sure Thing, Gross Pointe Blank, Say Anything...can't decide which I like best), The Wizard of Oz, Swimming with Sharks, oddly enough--Bedazzled, Boogieman and Boogieman 2. I also love bad 80's movies: Can't Buy Me Love, Valley Girl, Just One of the Guys, Lover Boy, Once Bitten, Bachelor Party, All of Me...and who can forget Breakin' and Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo (alright, so I just like to say "Electric Boogaloo").
Books:
Eat,Pray,Love; Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy; The Next Thing On My List; The Road Less Traveled; DaVinci Code; a bunch of Danielle Steel Novels; Who Moved My Cheese; Awaken the Giant Within; oh, and I'm pretty much a sucker for self help stuff (my dad's a psychologist, so I think it's inherited), or romance crap (I think too much at my job. I can read these books pretty much on auto pilot).
Heroes:
Glinda, the Good Witch of the North. The way she has Dorothy's back...you just can't find people like that these days...
