Music, Music, Music, Food, Books, Music, Dogs, Hockey, Music... did I mention music? I play bass, or at least try to, and my friends and I are in the formative stages of a band. I also write songs, check out some of my stuff sometime. I spend a fair bit of time at www.emptyspiral.net and www.nonpoint.com blowing the day away on message boards. I also play amateur hockey, and I'm a huge Colorado Avalanche fan, as well as the Colorado Eagles (CHL), and the University of Denver Pioneers. I'm also a bit of a gearhead - I love old sports cars (particularly British and Italian cars), and I'm huge fan of most all types of road racing.
mostly anything within the realm of metal, but I have pretty diverse taste as well, including blues, classic rock, celtic music, and a few other things thrown in the mix as well.....

Anything Monty Python, Anything by Mel Brooks, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, The Big Lebowski, anything else kind of oddball...particularly comedy...comedies are my favorites. I also love any movie with a fantasy or medieval type of theme - Lord of the Rings trilogy is the greatest movie EVER, also stuff like Braveheart, King Arthur, Excalibur, Druids, etc. And the Highlander series - that's another all-time favorite! Movies centered around cars and racing are great, too - Two-Lane Blacktop, American Graffitti, Grand Prix, Winning, and so on...
Ehh.....I don't really watch TV, except for hockey games and auto racing (mainly sports car racing, F1, and rallying)...although I'll never turn off an episode of Highlander if I happen to run across it!
The Dragonlance series is my favorite, Lord of the Rings, anything else that will trigger my imagination or books that are somewhat deep. I tend mostly to gravitate towards books of a fantasy or medieval nature, mostly fiction, but I'm a bit of a medieval history buff, too.
