I spend a lot of time listening to Ben Folds, Rob Zombie, Morrissey, Marilyn Manson, Death Cab, Spoon, Willie Nelson, Ryan Adams, Elvis Costello, David Byrne, the Tiger Lilies, Ministry, Ben Harper, Don Walser and his Pure Texas Band and just about anything else.
I love movies of all kinds. Even worked as a film critic for awhile so I could watch every single one that came out for free.
Sadly, I don't even have cable.
