My Interests

I'd like to meet:



I got my look at
MySpaceOrYours.net

Music:

As long as it's not country, I will probably like it. I do have favorites though, Radiohead, Coldplay, Gorillaz, Killers, Jimmy Buffett, Jack Johnson, Neil Diamond (seriously), Kelly Clarkson (again seriously), Peter Gabriel. My goal is to see every one of them in concert. I'm almost there!Best live show Will Hoge, love him. __________________ Here is my favorite live Radiohead song (I don't really like the cd version, but live it's unreal). Watch Thom sing, dance, get help for a guy that passed out in the crowd, then return to the singing and dancing as if it didn't happen. Strange moment caught on tape. .. width="425" height="350" ..

Movies:

American Beauty is number one!!! The rest I can't number, so in no particular order. Usual Suspects, Shawshank Redemption, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Strangers on a Train, Psycho, Rear Window (bit of a Hitchcock fan), Streetcar Named Desire, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Office Space, LA Story, Little Miss Sunshine

Television:

The Office is my current addiction. I also can't miss Lost, Heroes, Battlestar Galactica, Grey's Anatomy and Project Runway. .. width="425" height="350" ..

Books:

5 best books I have ever read: Beach Music, Tale of Two Cities, Lords of Discipline, In Cold Blood and Time to Kill. Anything by Pat Conroy, Tennessee Williams, Anita Schreve, James Patterson. I love to read. When I grow up and have a real house, I will have a library. A room of wall to wall books and great window light, that's my dream.
