Check out Brian Vander Ark, formerly of The Verve Pipe. As a songwriter, I rank him right up there with two of my other long time favorites, Billy Joel and elton John.
Some musicians come and go, but I'm pretty sure I'll still be listening to BVA 40 years from now.
I also like Nickelback, Pink Floyd, INXS (old *AND* new), Van Halen (Sammy *AND* David), and a whole slew of bands from the 80s.
Television
Currently enjoying Scrubs, Lost, Two and a Half Men, How I Met Your Mother, Battlestar Galactica, and The Family Guy. Damn HBO for cancelling ROME!
Books
BEST disease makes reading more trouble than it's worth, so I don't read books for pleasure anymore, it's kind of a bummer.

Hey.. old school geek here. Myspace is an interesting community - I've been using "online communities" since I logged onto my first BBS back in 1985 with my Commodore 64 and a 300 baud modem. If you know what that means, good for you.
I'm a web programmer by trade and by hobby, an avid sports fan who follows the following franchises: Detroit Tigers, Detroit Lions, University of Michigan Football, and the Carolina Hurricanes. (You see, I grew up in Michigan but when I moved to North Carolina, I adopted the Hurricanes as my favorite hockey team)
Check out my friend Brian Vander Ark's myspace web site and listen to his music, it is AWESOME! www.myspace.com/brianvanderark.
Meeting famous people doesn't really do much for me, but I would love to have lunch with John Edwards (the politician and presidential candidate).
And I'd love to have dinner with Drew Barrymore.
I know it's now cliche to be in love with Drew, since that guy did the movie about getting a date with Drew, but I've been a huge fan of hers since The Wedding Singer.
