American political culture and rhetoric. Americana. Derrida and Deleuze. Wine, women, and song.
Snoop Dogg, Frank Luntz, and your momma.
Ryan Adams, The Cure, Flaming Lips, TV on the Radio, Pixies, Dylan, Cash, Tim Buckley, The Streets, Marvin Gaye, Blackstar, Mobb Deep, Company Flow, Wu Tang, Sizzla, Prince. And a whole lot of other stuff. I'm eclectic, and yet remarkably fascist. The rule seems to be, I like good music and I dislike bad music. Yeah, that pretty much nails it down. Except, come to think of it, I also like some really bad music. Especially things that involve a lot of synthesizers.
Godfather, Donnie Brasco, At Close Range, U-turn, Mulholland Drive, The Good the Bad and the Ugly, Seven Samurai, Lola Rennt, Reservoir Dogs, Blade Runner, Game of Death... you know. And Top Gun and the Beverly Hills Cop trilogy.
Politics. Chapelle's Show. The Bachelor in Paris. OK, I only saw the bachelor once, but it was great. Not O'Reilly Factor funny, but up there. Letterman is way superior to Leno. Sopranos for ever. Or until last season. I love The Office, and no longer dislike the American remake.
Dr. Seuss: Green Eggs and Ham
Alex Foley, Johnny Cash, and Franklin D. Roosevelt
