Music, Movies, and Books
All music, been listening to a lot of Americana lately to offset the years of heavy electronic listening. Too many movies and TV shows to list, but I have a particular soft spot for what-some-would-call bad SciFi and post apocalyptic movies and shows. Books... lately I have really been liking Steven King. Thought I was too cool to read him in my ignorant youth years, but have decided he is pretty amazing in my wise old age.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Spending the night in the wilderness in Norway. Getting drunk and hanging out with "Johnny Fingers" in Camdentown, London. Climbing in Costa Rica with a small group of locals. Walking through the Racihna Favella in Rio. Sharing tea with Kuwaiti elders. Eating steak in Argentina, and not being able to sleep cause I was so full. Conquering half of the Japan (yes the whole country) in one weekend. conquering the northern cape of south africa in one weekend in an air-cooled 1950's beetle with no starter or 4th gear. realizing zimbabwe is actually one of the friendliest countries in the world regardless of mugabe and the rest of the worlds opinion. bathing in a freeeeezing cold mountain pool in Mulanje, Malawi after killing and butchering a chicken (i am now a vegan, not kidding). getting a free ride from a trucker in northern mozambique (sounds lame, but it is nearly impossible). I could go on all day, but i'd rather hear your stories.
