Music, movies, drinking, splitting the atom, you know the usual stuff. Oakland A's, Oakland Raiders, San Jose Sharks. Beer, Vodka, Whiskey, Scotch, Tequila, funky mixed drinks, and of course the best, RUM, especially Bacardi 151. That'll knock you on your ass. Liquid Vicodin. My guitars, electric, bass and acoustic. Not getting electrocuted. Old school cartoons. $4 pitcher night at the Ave. Finding money on the sidewalk. Not getting arrested if I can help it. $5 buy-in Texas Hold 'em nights. X-Box. Subtle comedy. Deja-Vu. BBQs. Avoiding Castro Valley like the plaque. Getting mugged by the cops in Mexico. The eye candy at parties and then talking to those girls who then get offended you looked at them, even though they wouldn't dress that way if they didn't want the attention it brings. The beach. BBQs at the beach. Drinking at the beach. Drunk BBQs at the beach.

Anything that doesn't suck. Although, sometimes, I'll watch a movie that sucks when I'm really drunk and think it's great then I'll see it again sober and demand the TV gives me my money back. I rarely receive the refund. The moral of the story is drinking is fun. On a more serious note though, here's a couple movies I enjoy that don't suck: Fight Club, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, A Clockwork Orange, Trainspotting, Snatch, Blue Velvet, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, The Empire Strikes Back, Bottle Rocket, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Back to the Future, Rushmore, Pi, The Big Lebowski, Almost Famous, The Royal Tenenbaums, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Kill Bill, Napolean Dynamite, Garden State, Zatoichi: The Blind Swordsman, X-Men, Spider-Man, Batman, Taxi Driver, Shaun of the Dead, Dawn of the Dead (the original), Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Army of Darkness, Lord of the Rings, Clerks, This is Spinal Tap, The Cooler, Scarface, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, Batman Begins.

Hunter S. Thompson books. The good doctor writes some crazy stuff. I can't really say that I'm a huge book person, I'll just read something that sounds interesting or a friend suggests I read. I don't go searching for the next great literary masterpiece to discover or anything like that. Although, I could make a career out of it. Of course, I'd make no salary and live on the street. And they say reading is fundamental. Jack-asses.
Yeah, that show rocks. Hiro is a badass.
