Being VEGAN (for more info go to www.whyvegan.com), straight edge, animal rights/liberation, avoiding second hand cigarette smoke, social justice, blue states, activism, volunteering, living car free, listening to NPR, complaining about suburban sprawl... very dreadful, circumnavigating the globe, adventure/travel, and going to vegetarian restaurants.
Fellow travelers.
Favorite bands are the Smiths, Morrissey, the Misfits (1978 to 1983 era), Danzig, and Samhain. Also like Endpoint, Shelter, Downcast, Gorilla Biscuits, 108, Earth Crisis, Murder City Devils, 4 Walls Falling, Unbroken, Split Lip, Inside Out, Chokehold, Alkaline Trio, Bad Religion, Vegan Reich, You and I, The Cure, Johnny Cash, Texas is the Reason, Beastie Boys, Ramones, U2, Walleye, Into Another, Weezer, Minor Threat, Bob Marley, Talking Heads, Rage Against the Machine, Sleater Kinney, Promise Ring, Piebald, Mean Season, The Rentals, Lincoln, and too many more to name. Oh yeah, ashamed to admit it, but Saves the Day isn't bad. Pretty much I listen to a lot of 90's hardcore, Indie rock, and punk.
My favorite movies are Star Wars and Indiana Jones. Also like Back to the Future, Point Break, The Lost Boys, 7 Years in Tibet, The Beach, The Bourne Identity, Trainspotting, Interview with the Vampire, Stand By Me, Saving Private Ryan, Full Metal Jacket, and European Vacation (and the original Vacation). The original of The Omen, The Exorcist, Halloween, and The Amityville Horror. Sometimes mainstream movies... other times documentaries and Indie films.
It's probably better to read or go outside.
"There's more to life than books, but not much more." I read mostly non-fiction about politics, social issues, and philosophy. Also I like classic literature. Some books I've really liked in no particular order are Animal Liberation, Atheism: The Case Against God, Dracula, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, 1984, Animal Farm, Fahrenheit 451, The Devil and Tom Walker, The Time Machine, The War of the Worlds, Gulliver's Travels, The Jungle, works by Chomsky or Zinn, works by Poe, Sherlock Holmes, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Lord of the Flies, A MidSummer Night's Dream, On the Beach, Night, Hiroshima, The Geography of Nowhere, and Lonely Planet travel books. "The inexorable passage of time makes every project we undertake ultimately futile."
I want to be like Batman, or maybe Indiana Jones... and a Jedi Knight. I go around the world like Magellan (or at least like his crew).
