Not dying. Pretty much that and some other stuff that includes things that won't kill me.
A man who lives on a beach, in a town where I am going to live and I will ask him "Are you looking for the mother lode?" Maybe the guy who broke into my car and took my original iPod. Oh, Steve Martin, Joey Santiago, Elvis Costello, Bob Newhart, Harvey Korman (not going to happen now), Tim Conway, Conan O'Brien and anyone else who I'd like to meet but haven't yet.
Hmmm...what ever tickles my fancy at the time really. But here's a short list: Pixies, Sublime, Foo Fighters, Everclear, Cheap Trick, White Stripes, Jack Johnson, Los Straightjackets, Kings of Leon, Bloodhound Gang, Prodigy, The Misfits, Johnny Cash,Mason Jennings, Jack Maness, Soul Coughing, Snow Patrol, Dethklok, Modest Mouse, Liz Phair, Barenaked Ladies (the band and thems that ain't wearin' no squirrel covers too!) and some other that are eluding me because I've drank too much coffee today.
The Shawshank Redemption, L.A. Story, The Jerk, Airplane, anything funny and silly, Dirty Harry Movies, Star Wars, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Sin City, The Simpsons Movie, Casino Royale (the new one), any James Bond with Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan, Those 80's John Hughes Fluff pieces, National Lampoon's Vacation, Back Dat Amatuer Azz Up 12 (anything after that is just too commercial)
Uh...The Simpsons! The Venture Brothers cartoon on Adult Swim! Family Guy, Robot Chicken, Mythbusters (yeah I'm geeky so what?), The Soup...anything that's funny pretty much...Like MXC (Most Extreme Elimination Challenge) on Spike...probably one of the funniest shows ever made! My new fave cartoon is "Metalocalypse" on Adult Swin. I'm also a fan of anything on the History Channel. And Fox News...man, that is some comedy right there!!
I just started Steve Martin's Biography "Born Standing Up". Anything by Carl Hiassen, That Shakespeare guy, True Crime Novels, etc. The Harry Pottery Barn series especially that one where he and the kids have to guard the distressed faux Teak travel trunk only to realize that what they really were supposed to be watching was the Summer Time Fun Glasstique Tumblers and Pitcher (they're unbreakable you know!)
My pops, Spiderman, Thor, the guy from that MacGuyver show, The A-Team (although they extort money from you unless you have tits), anyone that can do a job I don't want to do, people who need people (because they are the luckiest people in the world or so the story goes), Bradley Nowell, Dave Grohl, Steve Martin, Bob Newhart, Bill Hicks and anyone else that can put up with my bullshit!
