So..."wait till next year" can be applied to yet another Chicago sports team. How appropriate.

Music:

My brother introduced me to country music a couple years ago, and I'm pretty sure I haven't listened to anything else since. Toby Keith, Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw, Phil Vassar, Joe Nichols, etc.Also..rock, punk, occasionally some rap, NOT techno.

Movies:

The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, most any Quentin Tarantino flick, 40 year old virgin, wedding crashers, Caddyshack, Indiana Jones, the old Star Wars films, pretty much anything Sci-fi related...Stargate, the Harry Potter films, Godfather trilogy except for 3, Baseball movies like The Natural, Field of Dreams, both Major Leagues. Shawshank, Goodfellas, Casino. Fight Club. The Michael Keaton Batmans. Batman Begins too.
Also, any bad movie containing the following actors: Vin Diesel, the Rock, Milla Jovovich, Kate Beckinsale, the current Governor of California, Stallone, Jean Claude Van Damne, and/or Steven Seagal.

Television:

Family Guy, Sopranos, South Park, Simpsons, The Office, Law and Order: Original and SUV(for you Ed), CSI:Original and Miami, My Name is Earl, (secretly: Grey's Anatomy), House, ER, Without a Trace. Arrested Development before it was unceremoniously cut by Fox...
And you all need to check out How I Met Your Mother on CBS. Comedy gold with Doogie Howser as a side character.

Books:

A book on fantasy baseball that I probably should have read BEFORE the draft in march...
1776, any biography of a President or famous person(not psudo-celebrities), the Wheel of Time series, Davinci Code, Angels and Demons, Moneyball, Harry Potter, this obscure fantasy author named Mike Jefferies, Steven King a long time ago, Kurt Vonnegut.
