My Interests

Music:

I enjoy a little of everything. My first choice would be straight ahead jazz (Kenny Garrett/ Brandford Marsalis) or neo-soul (India Arie/ Jill Scott). Picky about classical- I like composers in the vein of Debussy, Rachmaninov, and Aaron Copeland. Country's ok if it's Shania or Keith Urban. Contemporary gospel in the vein of Dorinda Clark and Kim Burrell. Of course oldies like Steely Dan, Earth Wind and Fire, Commodores, Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Doobie Brothers etc.

Movies:

Anything Robert De niro, Al Pacino, Denzel Washington, Uma Thurman, Thandi Newton, or Laurie Holden. Of course epic films like Godfather I and II (can't watch III), Braveheart, Gattica, Star Wars, anything Hitchcock

Anything on the History Channel, AMC, American Chopper, A and E Biography, og Star Trek, Everybody Loves Raymond, Overhaulin, Dirty Jobs-
