Television:

Let's see.... what shows do I like? Without a Trace, Medium, Six Feet Under, My Name is Earl, The Office, CBS Sunday Morning... I like "reality television"... it's a good diversion. And news magazine shows (20/20, 48hrs) can be entertaining at times.....

Books:

I've always read a lot. I didn't have much choice - being the daughter of a librarian. But for me reading is somewhat disposable. I don't tackle giant books with deep, illuminating topics.... I like fiction novels. The fast-food of the literary world. BUT - my favourite book (ironically enough) is non-fiction... it's the autobiography of Bob Geldof, called IS THAT IT?. I think I've read it about 20 times. Damn that's a good book! . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .CURRENTLY READING:
