I enjoy reading Garfield comic books while drinking beer and swinging on a hammock. I also enjoy taking mob-hit contracts at least once or twice a year. I'm rather fond of squeezing the trigger while reading Garfield comic books and drinking beer from one of them beer dispensin' hats. Hammocks are usually unavailable in such times, but I survive.
I'd like to meet the guy who first made another guy slip on a banana peel, OR the guy who first said the words "A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do".
I enjoy playing old Big Band classics, using a Kazzoo and my able armpit. A guitar is used occationally. Music is indeed one of the Lord's more fun creations. I guess I could list the bands I think are good on this page, but why would I do that? I think general info is what we need here. Let's see: Classic and psychedelic rock (SYD BARRETT, WE MISS YOU!!), some jazz, some blues, some metal, some progressive, some Israeli music is really great, umm........ what else?....... I guess Frank Zappa is a category all by itself, since the guy is a bleeping genius!! I recently discovered that Radiohead's "KID A" hits me in the same spot that Floyd's "Dark Side" does, and that's saying a LOT. I still think that Manson's "Antichrist Superstar" is a masterpiece. Listening to the radio became a part of my life again, when I was working as a secutiry guard. "Someone stills loves you" indeed. The Pulp Fiction soundtrack is really nice. *Good* religious Hebrew music has its place in my heart, and its time in my stereo, but not lately to be honest.
So many movies... I'll write down the ones I really care about. The Matrix, since it has a lot of truth in it (only the first one). Adaptation, since it's beautiful. Spaceballs, since it still kills me after like 15 years. Disney's Alice in Wonderland, since it is so trippy. Seven, since it's just so damn weird. Pulp Fiction, for SO many reasons. Forrest Gump, for its simplicity.
As a general rule, I really hate television. HOWEVER, there are some really good shows. Seinfeld, Friends, and The Simpsons come to mind... not much else right now.
Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Dan Brown has some nice work. Lewis Carrol is great. Swan Song, by Robert R. McCammon, is really nice.
