My own 80s metal band, StereoPanther. Well, we broke up and formed StereoPanther II: Electric Bugaloo. It was sort of a dance revisiting of our old tunes. But that ended too. So now (due to legal reasons) I can't perform any of our old stuff. But I formed a cover band of my old band. We're called AudioJaguar. Not quite good as the Panther but hey, I have to make a living. mondobeyondo is another project of mine.
Movies
Punch Drunk Love, Shaolin Soccer, Naked Gun movies, Airplane!, For a Few Dollars More, Legend of Drunken Master, THE ALMIGHTY TRILOGY (Attack of the Clones aint that bad, either...and on a good day Episode III isn't a complete letdown), Pulp Fiction, Resevoir Dogs, Wrath of Khan,Team America, Memento, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, The Wall, Three Amigos, Back to the Future trilogy, Big Trouble in Little China, Oldboy (strictly for the fighting), Boogie Nights, Magnolia...pretty much any P.T. Anderson. Freaking Blues Brothers!! Star Trek VI. Children of Men. You know, stuff like that.
Television
The Office, Adult Swim, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Arrested Development, Kids in the Hall, Upright Citizens Brigade, The Colbert Report...does Channel 101 count?
Books
Catch-22, Histories of Herodotus, most plays by Aristophanes, Invisible Man, 1984, WALDEN (of course), War of the Rats, the Bible, works of Plato, Clockwork Orange, anything on Norse mythology like Snorri Sturluson's 'Prose Edda'...etc. I have to admit I've been getting more and more into Harry Potter as of late.
Comics-wise, I'd have to say Watchmen, Road to Perdition, Dark Knight Returns,Kingdom Come, the new Conan series by Kurt Busiek and Cary Nord and a little of Ultimate X-men.
And definitely Ultimate Spiderman and the Sandman. Pick up all trades. Now.

T.S. Eliot, Apostle Paul, E.E. Cummings, Orwell, Heller, Vonnegut, Aristotle, Isaiah, Ezekial, Jeremiah the Weeping Prophet, Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego...man I guess anyone Biblical. Stephen Colbert, the leader of Colbert Nation.
About me: As concerns the period-quite Baroque
with a bit of Romantic Irony, too
as far as philosophies go I'd probably side with Kant
but Plato or Hume would do.
Economically speaking: capitalist (socialist sympathizer though)
and not agnostic- I'd like to know.
Religious? No. Curious? Why not?
(I must admit I want to be Christian but wanting's all I've got)
An empricist as far as rationalism will allow...
or maybe a rationalist when empirically sound?
T.S. Eliot and E.E. Cummings:
Buffalo Bills and little i's (but not to mock)
cats and syntax, J. Alfred Prufrock.
I'm 19 as I'm sure you know:
old to some but young to most.
I'm poor, as I'm sure you've guessed:
rich to none, penniless to the rest.
...Howsabout yourself?
I just wanted you to know that you dedicated an entire page of my yearbook to your signing that goes something like this: Rachael, You're a transcontinental heart stealer. A disco-dancin devil from down under.
OMG!!! I love that you have the "Ah, fuck! I can't believe you've done this" on your profile... why you ask? Because I LOVE that video clip and say that line in my best british accent all the time!!
