The standards: music, movies, books (but that's why there's those sections further down, eh?), but also road trips, sunsets, being awake for sunrises (though not waking up for them), wine, intellectual conversations, intellectual conversations spurred by wine, not-so-intellectual conversations, appreciating art (though not making it), and a myriad of other things including (though not limited to) parentheses.
You know those people who say they listen to everything (usually except rap and/or country), then proceed to list the playlist of the top 40 pop radio station? Yeah, I'm not one of them. I honestly do listen to everything, from "alternative" to zydeco and everything in between. A sample: Gogol Bordello, the Ramones, Johnny Cash, Jurassic 5, Kid Koala, Patsy Cline, Outkast, Phish, Nation of Ulysses, Pirates 'R' Us, Dr. John, Kanye West, Guster, Tom Petty, Tool, Nickel Creek, Fiona Apple, Lisa Lashes, Death Cab For Cutie, Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam, Ella Fitzgerald, and many, many more.
I've been called a movie snob before, though I (usually) disagree. A random sample: American Beauty, Motorcycle Diaries, Lord of the Rings (especially the extended cuts), Wallace and Gromit, The Life of Brian, The Lion King, Death to Smoochy, Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Young Frankenstein, and many more that I can't think of right now.
I used to not watch tv. Then I moved to Kentucky and got cable. Now I watch: Lost, Scrubs, My Name is Earl, The Office, The Daily Show, Mythbusters, Grey's Anatomy, most things on the History channel, VH1 countdowns, Six Feet Under, and have been known to "secretly" watch Dancing with the Stars, America's Next Top Model, Desperate Housewives and the Real World. That's right bitches, you heard me.
Anything I can get my hands on, pure and simple. I've been on a 20th century history kick lately (having read Rise and Fall of the Third Reich and Dark Sun: The Making of the Hydrogen Bomb in the past few months), but I also enjoy: Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, John Steinbeck, Phillip Roth, Harry Potter, Shel Silverstein, Homer, Nick Hornby, John Irving, J.R.R Tolkien, and anything in between. And that's just the fiction....
