Television:

I find TV boring for the most part, so I don't watch it much. Most of the TV I watch is in the form of a DVD! I am a big "The X-Files", "Twin Peaks" and "PeeWee's Playhouse" freak. I have also become hooked on "Deadwood", "House" and Joss Whedon's series "Firefly". As a kid my favorite TV watching was late night B grade horror movies, "The Wild, Wild West", "Night Gallery", "Outer Limits" and "The Night Stalker".

Books:

Joan Didion, Hunter S. Thompson, Anne Rice, Richard Brautigan, Tolkien, Ray Bradbury, J.A. Jance, Toni Morrison, Philip K. Dick, Tony Hillerman, Jean Shepherd, Raymond Chandler, Roald Dahl, Doug Adams, Frank Herbert, Arthur C. Clarke, Shel Silverstein, John Steinbeck, Augusten Burroughs.......
