family, friends, music, film, baseball, roller coasters, staring at the stars under a clear moonlit sky
Music
Music is my passion, my life, and as a friend once said, something that has never let me down.
I was raised on music by both of my parents. I listen to a wide range of things, too many to mention here.
I will say though, that JJ72 are my favorite band on the planet. They saved my life, and inspired me to create again.
Movies
apollo 13, raising arizona, 2001, three amigos, office space, army of darkness, blazing saddles, young frankenstein, spaceballs, 24 hour party people, star wars, citizen kane, garden state, casablanca, strange brew, muppets from space, velvet goldmine, the crow, interview with the vampire, the princess bride, uhf, the great dictator, war of the worlds (the original, of course), the day the earth stood still, 12 monkeys, monty python and the holy grail, the monster movies of toho studios in japan, anything by tim burton (except for that planet of the apes remake, which will from now on be referred to as 'that damn monkey movie')
