Cinematography, writing, reading, and culinary experimentation, when I have the time.
Someone who understands the joke.
The inner swells of dissonant harmony that rise to resolve in an unexpected and unmatched epiphany. I'm also a fan of Guster.
Being There, Fight Club, Memento, Meet Joe Black, The Shawshank Redemption, A Beautiful Mind, and Blazing Saddles.
House MD, Stargate SG-1, Lost, and any creative commercials that I might happen upon.
Douglas Adams, Dave Barry, Christopher Moore, Terry Prachett, Michael Crighton, Alan Dean Foster, and Scott Adams.
Richard Feynman, Jack Handey, and the fat guy from the Hula Networks adverts.
