The Yankees, Ohio State Football, UK Basketball, The Bengals "Whodey!" Autumn, and anything that has to do with it. Paintball (lookout Gaal your ass is going down pal!), Tuesday flag football (watch out for Peyton ..18), Big League Chew, my family, the gym, , listening to a CD until I know all the words, dark movies that make you fall asleep, rainy days, sunny days, a bottle of wine that only cost $15 but was better than the $80 bottle you had last week, a good belly laugh, I mean the ones that make your face numb and your stomach sore the next day only you can't remember why, doing stupid shit with my closest friends, and never wanting to admit I'm wrong (not right away anyways!)
Where to start? Tim Burton, Johnny Depp, the guys from Weezer, Roger Clemens, Greg Maddux, Llyod Carr (so I could tell him what a jackas he is), John Cusack, Jack Black, Chris Carraba (guitar lessons), Andrew McMahon (I've had some good memories listening to SoCo), Pee Wee, Ben Franklin, and the guy who invented the "Can Collander" so i could kick his ass for stealing my idea, Steve Carell, Norm Abrams, Warren Buffett, Jimmy Buffett (no relation), Steve Perry formerly from Journey, and The guys from Deatchcab to name a few.
A little eclectic. In my CD changer in my car right now I have The Early November, Jamison Parker, Jimmy Eat World, Armor For Sleep, and Deathcab. Some of my other favs, Motion City Soundtrack, Copeland, Dashboard, The Academy Is.., Mae, Rage, Weezer (the blue album is w/outta doubt the best album of all time), Something Corporate, Snow Patrol, and of course we can't forget a little Journey!

I'm really into Prison Break right now, also Entourage (told ya, typical penis owner). And I can always watch a good Friends rerun, PIVOT!!! Gaal have i ever told ya that you remind me of Ross? "Fine by me!" Then you have the classics, Smurfs, Gummy Bears, The Flintstones, Snorkels, Ducktales, Perfect Strangers, Mr. Belvedere, Who's the Boss?, Pee Wee's Playhouse, Cpt. Caveman, Johnny Quest, The Muppets, Muppet Babies, Supermarket Sweep, oh yeah and Thundercats. UPDATE: The Office, Little People Big World, Flight of the Concords, New Yankee Workshop, Rob and Big...Yeah Son!
I really enjoy books that remind me of my childhood, I think every child should have a copy of "Where the Sidewalk Ends". Also Pretty much any book that has historical significance, if you've never read "The Jungle" by Upton Sinclair, then pick it up, you'll have a new found aprreciation for the FDA, and if not then you'll probabaly become a vegetarian. Recently I've read "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie, it's a pretty incredible book if you take into consideration that it was written over 70 years ago. I guess no matter how much the times and technology changes, people as a whole pretty much stay the same.
My Pop Pop...I'll miss you grandpa, I think about you everyday.
