The beauty of nature. Pretty pictures and well-written words. Rock songs. Any living thing that can't be converted into a sandwich. Sandwiches. Movies movies movies. Dr. Pepper and Reese's. Continuing my weed-infested sobriety. Eventually learning that exercise is important. Now that I've a somewhat laughable work ethic, getting a job that doesn't suck.
The Bionic Woman. The prosecutor on SVU. The girl who sells the pmdd medicine. Lord, I'm lonely.
Northern European death metal, Lucero, Sonic Youth, Explosions In The Sky, CONNER, Swervedriver, Modest Mouse, Citizen Cope, The Go! Team (thanks, Chelsea), Mos Def, Charlie Parker, Midget Whores, Jay-Z, Pixies, Miles Davis, Vitreous Humor, The Rolling Stones, Talib Kweli, anything Danger Mouse touches, The Replacements (greatest rock band ever), and Prince. For the last fifteen years I've based my musical taste on whatever Richard, Bryce, Rick, Matt, or Steve are digging at a given time. Check out my Friend's Space if you want to know what I'm listening to currently (dig how I avoided ending a sentence with a preposition).
Like them all. Even Police Academy 4. Favorites... hm. Blue Velvet, The Magnificent Ambersons, Videodrome, and The Bridge Over the River Kwai; these movies rule. Holy shit, that is the most nonrepresentational and random list written by anyone about anything ever. Some day I'll list my 300 favorite movies. Well, here's a start, anyway (in no particular order, I assure you): The Elephant Man, Anchorman, Sleepy Hollow, Vertigo, Scanners, Caddyshack, Dawn of the Dead (the original, and the remake's pretty fucking good), Touch of Evil, Paths of Glory,Something About Mary, On the Waterfront, The Philadelphia Story, Arsenic and Old Lace, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Requiem for a Dream,Dodgeball, Jaws, Weird Science, Fantasia, CREEPSHOW, Suspiria, 2001: A Space Oddyssey, The Princess Bride, Crash, Belle de Jour, The Station Agent, The Straight Story, Taxi Driver, Sleeping Beauty (Disney haters need to chill; when the titular man was still kickin', he was at least a brilliant task-master), um, did I mention Creepshow? I am way too right-brained to be methodical about this list, I'll get back to it later. Calling them films is for pretentious pricks who don't know shit compared to me about movies. Unless I start using the word film to describe movies when I go into conversational geek-dork mode, then using the word film is coo.
Way, way too much of that shit. Nay, I like My Name is Earl,Family Guy, Nip/Tuck, Scrubs, Law and Order: SVU, Rescue Me, Weeds, South Park, Extras, The Office (preferably the British originals, but the Steve Carrell show is awright), and pretty much anything on Discovery and Animal Planet. Bear Gryll is a crazy fuck, isn't he? Past shows I enjoy watching: Twin Peaks, The Andy Griffith Show, Northern Exposure, The Twilight Zone, My So-Called Life, Freaks and Geeks.
Read and read and read and yet have not tipped the iceberg. Dan Simmons is God. Dickens was God, but that God is dead.
Jesus and Brett Favre.
