Television
I'm not a huge TV watcher, I gotta admit. However, I do rent some shows (no cable, you know): Deadwood, 24, 6 Feet Under, Dead Like Me, Carnival. I miss the Daily Show (I catch snippets online though) and most of the shows on Animal Planet...but its not worth getting cable for 4-5 channels, so :P
Books
Oh Christ. My LibraryThing page is probably the best place to go for a more complete (and growing) list.
My interests roam all over--I worked at a bookstore for 5 and a half years, which only worsened my addiction to books and expanded my list of prefered genres. However, I find myself most often dabbling in fantasy and fiction. I am also fascinated by history, philosophy, linguistics and have a weakness for (at least vaguely) intelligent humor.
Heroes
Mae West. Calamity Jane. Grace O'Malley. Heart. I have a thing for women who know and pursue what they want, and gender roles be damned. You go, ladies.

About me:
Good natured, laidback, with a well-developed sense of humor stemming from years of Monty Python, Bill Cosby, and more recently Eddie Izzard. I'm hopelessly addicted to books, music and movies, and have a weakness for pool. I love animals, and am currently playing the part of pet to a very independent, large yellow tabby cat named Monster, and his small, fiesty female counterpart, Bella Donna. I can be long winded and have a tendency to overuse elipses....
Follow-up to previous comment you sent me: Why does the man have a shirt on, but no pants? I never understand people who go pantsless but maintain a shirt. Crazy!
