Fear of a Black Hat, Being John Malkovich, The Butterfly Effect, What Dreams May Come (hi Jade!) and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (I'm such a romantic sap)
Television
TV is evil, nevertheless: Comedy Central & HBO - Lucky Louie, Bill Maher, etc, and THE WIRE: R.I.P. - STAY AWAY FROM BET it will make you stupid if you watch more than an hour a day - believe that, anyway I also like cartoons,Tom & Jerry's my all time classic fave, Drawn Together, South Park & Adult Swim
Books
Ghetto Nation by Cora Daniels, The Portable Promised Land by Toure, the Ego Trip List books, anything by Walter Mosely, and I collect poetry chapbooks of all types
Heroes
people who stand up for other people - very few of us do that anymore
Cats say I'm just a blind optimist, but I know ugly when I peep it, dammit! I have been known to yell out some really dumb shit during sex. I save approximately 6 people from dying every week ('tis true, ask me how), I was the number 18th ranked slam poet once (which makes me like the Anna Kournikova of poets - only cuter!), Bahamadia has hit on me every time I've met her - I'm a sucker for a bottle of Fu-Ki Plum wine, I've been cursed out in Japanese a million times, I'll give you the shirt off of my back - if you can just tell me where the f**k yours is....
