schubertiad's Interests
|
| General | I'm into Macs, music (playing, writing, and listening), photography, good food and good wine, beer (not watery American lager), fine tequilas and scotches, cocktails, Japan, mystery books, sunshine, blue skies, warm weather, the occasional viewing of good TV, poetry, art, design, creativity in general, kindness, cleverness, wit, grace, beauty, generosity of spirit, hope as a choice and a survival mechanism, 1-on-1 conversations, people who don't shout, humility, circumspection, introspection, skepticism (but not cynicism), finding peace in things small and big, receiving massages, going for long walks, working out (a little), petting our two fuzzy kids (feline), and just hanging out with my wife... | | Music | I'm into the Smiths/Morrissey/Johnny Marr, the Moore Brothers (or pretty much any Thom Moore/Greg Moore stuff), Suede, Radiohead, Nick Drake, Syd Barrett, Coldplay (although X&Y leaves me a little cold), early-to-mid U2 (up to about Achtung Baby), Spitz, Luna Sea, the first few Brilliant Green albums, Every Little Thing (up to 4 Force), Tamaki Koji, Brian Wilson-era Beach Boys, Ozzy-era Sabbath, Crowded House/Neil Finn/Finn Brothers, Depeche Mode, Foo Fighters, Motorhead, Joy Division/New Order, Roth-era Van Halen, Neil Young, XTC, lots of 50s-60s classic jazz, and many, many "classical" composers.
| | Television | Survivor, Amazing Race, Deadliest Catch, Iron Chef, various cooking/home design shows, Dotchi no Ryori Show, Mecha Mecha Iketeru!, Guru Guru 99, American Chopper, Dog, Mythbusters, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Countdown with Keith Olbermann, Extreme Makeover Home Edition (when they find a really deserving family), Simpsons, Futurama, Penn and Teller's Bullshit!... | | Books | I like so many...but if I had to choose a few that I would have everybody in the world read, they would probably be Carl Sagan's "Demon Haunted World" and Michael Shermer's "Why People Believe Weird Things." Truly lights of reason to dispell the shadowy world of mystical thought.
I also just finished "Broken Trust" by Judge Sam King and Prof. Randy Roth (one of my professors, actually). In the book they lay bare the corruption, taint, cronyism, greed, hubris, and disregard for law involving the trustees of Bishop Estate (the largest charitable trust in the U.S.), the Hawaii Supreme Court, the Hawaii Legislature, and many members of the Hawaii legal community. It's a great read, with page after page of outrageous behavior documented for all to see. I recommend it to anyone interested in Hawaiian history, Hawaiian politics, trust law, ethics, or whatevah. | | Heroes | I have to give credit to a few folks who deserve it: Carl Sagan, Michael Shermer, The Amazing Randi, Richard Dawkins. Modern-day heroes of rational thought. |
