Interests
General
My goal in life is to be a well read, well rounded, well informed person; that guy at the cocktail party that can carry on an intelligent, informed (and hopefully witty) conversation with anybody on virtually any topic. Even though my school days are over I want to continue to expand my interests and explore new things throughout life. I like the arts (film, books, theater) and I also love sports (NFL and MLB in particular). I like to work out and try to stay in good shape.
Music
I tend to like singer/songwriters regardless of genre. My taste is very eclectic. Maybe this is just me getting older, but I like music that is organically created. I like to hear musicians playing in a studio and if it sounds a little sloppy and not very polished I like it even better. I don't like music that somebody created using Grarage Band in their living room. Did you see Prince at the Superbowl??? Just amazing. Favorites: Springsteen, Hank Williams, Maria McKee/Lone Justice, Elvis Costello, The Clash, U2, G. Love, The White Stripes, Prince, Elton John, Kanye West, Dylan, Chris Issaak, Green Day, Brian Wilson, Brian Setzer, Billy Joel, Ben Harper.Movies
This is a hard list for me to make. I love film. Some favorites: The Searchers, Mr. Smith Goes to Washingtong (I am a total mark for Capra), Sunset Boulevard, Casablanca, On the Waterfront, Pulp Fiction, Children of Men, Dr. Strangelove, Glengarry Glen Ross ("Put. That. Coffee. Down.") Batman Begins, Fargo, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Back to the Future, The Departed.....My favorite movie of the last 5 years is still the documentary Murderball. http://imdb.com/name/nm2542624/Television
Books
I like post modern literary novels a lot. Nick Hornby, John Updike, Kurt Vonnegut (so it goes), Micheal Lewis, Michael Chabon, David Mamet (I know, not a novelist), JD Salinger, Anne Tyler, Larry McMurtry, Jonathon Safron Foer, John Updike. I love crime fiction, so Elmore Leonard and Michael Connelly are must reads.Heroes
Underdogs and overachievers. Example: Priest Holmes.
