Music: vocal, guitar, piano, et al
Comedy: all humor interests me even, non-funny humor attemps
Learning: I was going to say education, but didn't want it to seem as if I was some academia snob. I enjoy learning from every opportunity.
You in the parking lot... I don't know someone interesting who could hold my attention. I won't give a specific example, but politicians need not apply.
Too many influences to list them all. I enjoy all music. I grew up a vocalist so vocal music would tend to fall high on the list, but I enjoy everything from Baroque to Blues and from Renaissance to Rap and everything in between. You could see me singing along to Rent one moment and the next I'm rapping with TI. I'm very eclectic.
See Music: I feel the same way about cinema as I feel about music. I had the "opportunity" to work for Movie Gallery Associates when I was a teenager and during my tenure there I watched every video in the store. Since that time, I have grown to appreciate a wider base of cinema.
I don't watch a whole lot of TV, but my TIVO does. I try to stay up-to-date on Smallville, Numbers, and NCIS, but other than that, I'm not too current. I do however, get a steady dose of the Simpsons and Jeopardy and will occasionally fall asleep with the Cartoon Network playing in the background (Adult Swim is pretty good).
My mom. She lost the battle against pulminary fibrosis. Every day that she fought to stay alive and continue breathing reminds me that life is precious. Her faith astounded me to no end. She witnessed The Word to whoever would listen as was doing so on her death bed. She was an amazing woman and all who met her would agree. I miss you mom.
