MoviesI am so tired of movies. No good story can be told in 2 hours. All my favorite good writers are now on TV. (Seriously!)
TelevisionAny long-running, good-story-telling, serial shows that are capable of multi-season story archs... Buffy, The West Wing, Battlestar Galactica ... I'm afraid if I list many more I will begin to feel like a weenie.
BooksI'll read anything.. recently-enjoyed books include Milton's "Paradise Lost", "Freakonomics" by Steven D. Levitt, and Ursula K. LeGuin's "Earthsea" trilogy (recently desecrated by the sci-fi channel).
HeroesFrankie Manning, Aaron Sorkin, Joss Whedon, Terry Gross, Barack Obama, and all astronauts.

Passionate Lindy Hoppers everywhere, jazz musicians who enjoy tradtional/classic jazz from dixieland to early Miles Davis, and other attractive and intersting Giant Pandas.

Did I ever say thank you for that dance we had to Blues My Naughty Sweetie Gives to Me? If I haven't yet, there it is--that was a bright spot in an otherwise creatively dark weekend.

I could go on about how awesome you are, but you'd probably get tired of it.

This pic is awesome - it captures your energy, while also being kind of swanky.

Love. It.
