art, movies, music, watching TV, drinking beer, wine and just about anything else that's yummy, and watching my kid turn into a person.
all my old friends and the people I love.
I still love Patti Smith, but now I listen to opera too. Caetano Veloso, Pablo Milanes and Mercedes Sosa make me happy. lately I've been listening to Dagmar Krause, Henry Cow, Art Bears and Slapp Happy. Really, I'm pretty indiscriminate unless it sucks. Then it just sucks. Yeah and Howling Wolf "Who's been talkin'" Great fucking song. I can listen over and over. And Ali Farka Touré.The latest music I've been liking a lot is British Ska from the 80s. Perky stuff.
Cold Comfort Farm. My passion is surf documentaries. I can always watch Riding Giants or the Endless Summer. I also like the Thin Man movies or just about anything with William Powell. And *M*A*S*H*...
Anything that fills in the spaces while I read and grade papers. I like clips shows for that. And things on TLC like What Not to Wear. More like how to dress like a secretary. And just old movies. Mostly TV is a time filler/killer, but I won't pretend I hate it just to be cool.
Whatever is open in front of me. Or art books with pictures. Or Philip Pullman's "His Dark Materials" trilogy--brilliant stuff. "The Kite Runner" is pretty damned good. Mostly I read "The Nation"... it comes out too often, but packs a wallop to last for years.
Patti Smith. Roberto Clemente. Lisa Antoun who just died of breast cancer. My friend Kyra. My daughter.I am like the:
