listening to music, recording music, making music, photography, travel, comedy, cosmology and physics, history, learning new things...
The Jesus Lizard, Shellac, Pixies, The Beatles, Fugazi, The Flaming Lips, The Cardigans, Radiohead, Neutral Milk Hotel, mclusky, and many more!
The Big Lebowski, Fight Club, Amelie, Lost In Translation...I'm not really much of a movie buff.
Mr. Show is all you need. You can supplement it with the Family Guy and the Simpsons when needed.I don't really watch TV much at all, though. If I do it's usually CNN, the History Channel, Discovery, or TLC. I do try to watch Mythbusters whenever I can. I loves me some Mythbusters.
