My Interests

So what interests me... well. Hmmmm. Computers, but that makes me sound like a geek. Well, I am. So. Yeah. Computers interest me. And history. If I wasn't working with computers, then I would be a history teacher. Since I just bought turntables, they also interest me.

I'd like to meet:

William Proxmire (but he's dead), Jesus [after the resurrection] (he's dead too), My grandfather (also dead), Alexander the Great (ditto), Rasputin (the same).

Huh... looks like most of the people I want to meet are dead.

Music:

Just about everything.... except for radio country.

Movies:

Yojimbo / Seven Samurai / Hero / Ong Bak / Old Boy / House of Flying Daggers / Akira / Azumi / Avalon / Sky High / Fighter in the Wind / The Promise

Television:

24 / Family Guy / Simpsons / Adult Swim / The Daily Show / Entourage / Rome

Books:

Authors: Haruki Murakami / Neil Gaiman / David & Leigh Eddings / Kurt Vonnegut / Simon Green / Douglas Adams / Robert Heinlein
