Love Tarrantino's movies, the Usual Suspects, Heat, Super Fuzz with Terrence Hill, anything with Shauna Grant.

I could live without television if I could just watch the Sunday Night FOX lineup of King of the Hill, the Simpsons, Family Guy, and American Dad. Oh, I'd need South Park, too. Do you have TIVO? What are you, Amish? TIVO!

Books:

Politics, True Crime, Science fiction and mysteries.

All the great dead drummers.... Buddy, Bonham, Keith....
