Television:
I don't watch too Much TV but I would say House is my number one right now. I am also a fan of CSI and Law and Order (and all the spinoffs....don't have time to list them I'd be here all day). I try not to watch the news, it's depressing and REALITY TV MUST DIE!!!. Otherwise I'm a Discovery and History channel junkie when I'm home. In the guilty pleasure department, we can always find such greats as The Family Guy, The Simpsons, Chappelle's Show, and pretty much anyhting else on Comedy Central!!!
Books:
I'll read anything....Fiction, history, biography, travel, and even textbooks. I love poetry and verse and when I'm home my nose is usually buried in something. It's rare I read something I don't really care for in one aspect or another. I am currently reading the The Complete Idiot's Guide for Dummies...:-) just can't seem to get into it though. My all time favorite book is probably The Prophet by Kahil Gilbram or, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintence.
Heroes:
Edgar Allen Poe, John Lennon, Ralph Nader, Adam F. Duritz, Gandhi, Larry Brown, Kevin Spacey,My Father, FDR, all my friends.........
