Movies
Yes.
Especially Sci-Fi, Action/Adventure, Comedy (even Sci-Fi-action-adventu-comedies... Star Wars, anyone?), Horror, Black Comedy, British Comedy, old spy films (007), art-house films, John Hughes, George Lucas (for a while I refused to accept his calls for refusing to put the original theatrical releases of the Star Wars Trilogy on DVD, but he's since heeded the outcry. Woohoo!), Stephen Spielberg, David Lynch (still trying to wrap my head around "Mulholland Drive"), Clive Barker, Ridley Scott, etc.
I like 'em scary, gross, cheesy, geeky, intelligent and funny. Now is that too much to ask?
Television
I don't watch much television unless certain shows or movies are on. I'm a sucker for various types of movies, and can waste a helluva lot of time watching them.
Heroes
Cookie Monster, creative people, fun people who find pleasure in the simple as well as the complex things in life. There are a lot of musicians that I follow and admire (see above list), but only a handful qualify for "Hero" status. One in particular is very worthy of the title, but would never accept the crown, and that's part of why I admire him.

First Friday * August 7th stop by MyARTS and grab yourself an inexpensive urban inspired t-shirt at our block party. Free parking. The t-shirts are of great quality and range in all sizes from infants to adults. Don't miss out on this great sale from 5:00-8:00pm.
Man, I'm frustrated I can't be around for what you're doing at Liverpool now. But over in the Springs I'm looking to start a Goth / Deathrock club night of my own; no techno, no modern industrial, no EBM. Now there's a novel idea!?
And give the new song a listen if you hadn't already, let me know what you think. I'd like to get an EP out to your mailbox within the next month.
Hiya! Thanks for adding me! I use myspace for contacting artists and keeping in the retro loop. Let me know if anything '80s related is happening in KC. Cheers and blessings, Jeremy PS: I'm on Facebook also. Add me!
