Growing my hair, digging in the dirt, and long walks with Ira Glass during which I steal cuttings from other people's yards. Diagraming hundreds of my favorite sentences in an attempt to figure out where genius comes from. Round table discussion all the time. Puns. Molecular changes. Courier New font. Writing everything. Reading six books at once. Pencils not pens because pencils have more give. Impromtu bar polls. Pieces of old typewriters kept in my pocket for good luck. Lots more... let's talk about it.
Snow. I mean, if it even exists. Ice from the sky? That's crazy talk.
Jeff Tweedy et all, Elliott Smith, Stephin Merritt, the incredibly prolific Ryan Adams, Ben Folds & Darren Jessee but not Robert Sledge. I think Brand New is putting out music that is incredibly dynamic and you are all missing it. Those are the big ones. I listen to a lot of XMU and get NPR podcasts on the regular.
The Andersons-- more Paul Thomas than Wes, but I like them both.
We make our own.
Books are my entire world.
