Music, especially live music. Writing fiction. The ancient Chinese martial arts. Paper mache sculptures. Philately. Naming my toes. Naming other people's toes. Backgammon. Macaroni pictures. Dungeons & Dragons. Most of these are jokes.
Music
In heavy rotation lately: Rogue Wave, the Mountain Goats, Color Me Badd, Loney Dear, Modest Mouse, Hannah Montana (when she's not lipsyncing), Shout Out Louds, Datarock. Two of these are jokes.
Movies
Some random good ones: Anchorman, The Royal Tenenbaums, Get Shorty, Dr. Strangelove, Braveheart, The Mirror Has Two Faces, Snatch, His Girl Friday, Team America: World Police, High Fidelity. One of these is a joke.
Television
Scrubs, South Park, 24, Planet Earth, Arrested Development (RIP), The Office, SportsNight, Women's Pro Beach Volleyball. None of these are jokes.
Books
Heart of Darkness, Anything by P.G. Wodehouse or Evelyn Waugh, The Mental Game of Baseball, My Name is Asher Lev, The Elements of Style, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close. None of these are jokes. Literature is not a laughing matter.
Heroes
The presence of this question makes it more likely that the earlier question was, in fact, a networking question. I may revisit that one later, but here are some of my heroes: Gary Carter (my favorite when I was a kid), Sidney Carton (if only he weren't fictional), Mike Shanahan (keeping the good guys in it every season), Calvin Coolidge (if only he weren't fictional, too).

Who I'd like to meet: I can't really tell if this is supposed to be a sort of historical interests question or a networking question. Thus confused, I abstain.
I just heard about the game this weekend. Are you going? Is anyone going? I actually called and talked with the new coach. He said that he only wanted us there to see the team and that we were all too old and were never any good so the longest he would let us play would be about an hour. If there will be people there, I will make the drive from Jacksonville, FL. Let me know.
There is a game this year, I just got an email about it today. I think it's either the 1st or 2nd weekend of October. I'm not going. I don't understand how there's an alumni game when AC doesn't even have a team yet.
Joelseph, what up baby!! Did Lori give you my check. I notice it hasn't been cashed yet!! I had a great time at Roo!! Hope I see you at a FSU game!! xoxo
