I don't watch much TV, but occasionally I'll tune into the Daily Show.
In the past I watched (and still enjoy) Gargoyles, Sailor Moon, Utena, Daria, Downtown, Dragon Half, and to a lesser extent Tenchi Muyo (the early episodes that were actually funny).
I want to see Excel Saga + other good anime. I'm thinking of starting an anime club.

For 15 years I searched for a Latin dictionary that has a translation for "television". I finally found it in the book Conversational Latin: for Oral Proficiency. The word is "televisorium". Who would have guessed!? 
Fiction
The mists of Avalon and The Forest House are long time favorites, and sometime when I get a chance I'll reread them.
Computer books
C++ Primer Plus is a C++ book that I just finished (pretty good despite frequent typos), and The XSL Companion is one of the most direct, most clearly-written, and one of the best computer books I've ever read, and can easily be had for $1 online. Lately I've been reading xForms Essentials.
More about my books...

Logomachist's Blurbs |
About me:
Like the solitary unicorn, I'm a loner. I get along with most people well enough, but I don't have many friends. I'm not very talkative and I keep to myself. It is because of these qualities a friend of mine said I would make an excellent assassin. Also like the unicorn, I'm very stubborn. While I try to be fair, when I'm out to achieve a goal I pursue it with single-minded abandon. So watch out.
But I have good qualities too! For example, I'm tolerant, patient and sincere.
The above is but a glimpse of my personality. If there's something more you want to know about me, ask.

Who I'd like to meet:
I'm especially interested in meeting:
- A girlfriend
- Someone new to study C++ (and other programming languages) with. I'm studying AJAX now and I'm going to start studying Ruby in a few weeks.
- Anyone willing to correspond with me in Latin, and tolerate my inadvertent butchering the language
But I'd also expect I'd get along with, and so would like to meet:
One last thing.... When you contact me, tell me about characters you identify with. It gives me an idea what you're like, and what fictional universes you're interested in.
