Music
Classic Rock, Blues, tiny bit of old school Jazz, Country (none of that Nashville Pop that they play on the radio, though) little bit of '80s & '90s Rock and Punk, Folk & Bluegrass, a couple of Rap/R&B artists.. I can pretty much find 5 or 10 artists that I, like, and a hundred I don't in any genre of music.

Books
Steinbeck (Of Mice & Men, Tortilla Flat, The Pearl, etc.; haven't gotten a copy of Grapes of Wrath into my hands, yet) ¤ Kerouac (Dharma Bums, On The Road, The Subterraneans, Desolation Angels) ¤ Lord of the Flies by: Golding ¤ Vonnegut (Slaughterhouse Five, Bagombo Snuff-Box, and other short stories) ¤ 1984 by : Orwell ¤ The Great Gatsby by: Fitzgerald (a little wordy for me, but he's still a good writer)
I dunno what else, lots of reference books (I found a world history by H.G. Wells, that one's pretty interesting) books on philosophy, religion, history, psychology, photography, world mythology... anything that strikes me as useful knowledge...
You live your life with integrity, originality, vision, and creativity.Independent and stubborn, you rarely stray from your vision - no matter what it is.You are an excellent listener, with almost infinite patience.You have complex, deep feelings, and you take great care to express them.
In love, you truly see relationships as an opportunity to connect and grow.You enjoy relationships as long as they are improving and changing. You can't stand stagnation.
At work, you stay motivated and happy... as long as you are working toward a dream you support.
You would make a great photographer, alternative medicine guru, or teacher.
How you see yourself: Hardworking, ethical, and helpful.
When other people don't get you, they see you as: Manipulative, weak, and unstable

An extremist banner decays against this pragmatic machinery.

Some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will.
I sure could use a vacation from this
bull-s××t three ring circus sideshow of
Freaks here in this, hopeless f××king, hole we call LA.
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away.
Any f××king time.
Any f××king day.
Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona bay.
Fret for your figure and
Fret for your latte and
Fret for your lawsuit and
Fret for your hairpiece and
Fret for your prozac and
Fret for your pilot and
Fret for your contract and
Fret for your car.
It's a bull-s××t three ring circus sideshow of

Any f××king time.
Any f××king day.
Learn to swim, I'll see you down in Arizona bay.
Some say a comet will fall from the sky.
Followed by meteor showers and tidal waves.
Followed by faultlines that cannot sit still.
Followed by millions of dumbfounded dips××ts.
Some say the end is near.
Some say we'll see armageddon soon.
I certainly hope we will
I sure could use a vacation from this
stupid sh×t, silly s××t, stupid s××t...
One great big festering neon distraction,
I've a suggestion to keep you all occupied.
¤Learn to swim.¤
Mom's gonna fix it all soon.
Mom's comin' round to put it back the way it ought to be.

'Cause I'm praying for rain

I wanna see the ground give way.
I wanna watch it all go down.
Mom please flush it all away.
I wanna see it go right in and down.
I wanna watch it go right in.
Watch you flush it all away.
Time to bring it down again.
Don't just call me pessimist.
