Music, Movies, and Books

I am eclectic, I like a variety of music, being partially deaf, it helps if the words are not hidden away in the music.

Movies, I honestly am addicted to movies (in a good way) I do a good job at movie quotes and have an appreciation of movies across the board. I can do a chick flick like the notebook, and then watch SAW III, and follow it up with Dumb and Dumber. I love the cathartic nature that movies can move you in.

Books: Mythical, (Terry Brooks) Sword of shannarah, Selling , The challenger . Psychology (Malcom Gladwell) The tipping point, Blink, Outliers. Religious, Tora, Bible, book of mormon, Koran,

I enjoy many things
