Reading, Trivia, over pronounced spoken word poetry, random facts, puzzles, Spanish, baking, caffeinated beverages, body art, languages, food, travel (yay Portland) making me happy
Charles Shaw. Dude owes me some stock. Just like my brother...my grandparents. Woulda loved to have given them a twist in my childhood! Scrabble players. Coffee drinkers. Movie shushers. People who aren't afraid to eat carbohydrates. Dancers who are willing to do so when no music is playing.
None of the crap that is on the radio these days! Classic Michael Jackson, Classic Prince,Talib Kweli, the Roots, Bob Marley, Common, John Legend, Gypsy Kings, Alicia Keys, Annie Lennox, Marvin Gaye, Mama & the Papas, Daft Punk, Dj Dan,The Duhks, The Killers, The Darkness, OzoMatli, Raoul Malo, just fell in lust with the Scissor Sisters..but Raul is happy.
I like indie flicks...foreign flicks...chick flicks...action flicks...musicals.....gritty urban dramas...something that'll keep my interest until something else catches my eye. Anything with Parker Posey. School Daze, SLAM, Amores Perros, Fried Green Tomatoes, Color Purple, Moulin Rogue, RENT,Hero,The Warriors, Hedwig and the Angry Inch,Chicago, Boyz N' the Hood...stuff like that
Don't have a Tv...okay...just got one. Don't have cable. But I watch many a show by the power of Netflix....someone please make me stop with the Gilmore Girls!
Fat!so? The Autobiography of Malcom X, Invisible Life, the Color Purple, Where the Sidewalk Ends, Falling up, How the Garcia Girls Lost their Accent, The house on Mango Street, Fast Food Nation, Reefer Madness
Ed Bradley, Gordon Parks, Coretta Scott King, Johnathon Larson, Zora Neale Hurston, Gregory Hines. They speak to everything of me. The beauty of truth in journalism, beauty of the lens, beauty of equality and justice, beauty of lyrics, beauty of the written word, beauty of making noise...with your feet.
