Oh books is it? Actually I'm way behind the gun. On this one. Classics: Hemmingway I suppose the bible is the ultimate classic so I'm toppint the list wit it. Hemmingway comes second. Homer-Illiad, Shakespere's tragedied and comedies. Who ever wrote the pit and the pendulum. I forgot. More current stuff- anything by Rodger Zelanzny Michael Morecock - Cornelius Chronicles and Corum books and Elric. Gene Wolf- Very few authors have his style. Peirs Xanth-Prolific but enjoyable generally. Heinlein, Asimov I guess just for his ideas. Richard P. Feynman, Stanislov Lem, Phillip K. Dick-why take drugs when you can just read his stuff!, Octavia Buttler, Ann Rice, Patric O'Leary, James Morrow, and last Gor novels -banned whever they are. And last but not least. Studs Trerkel. Get one of his books and peruse to your hearts desire. Jordyart- What about Graphieti (sp) Bridge, Gold, Prince-Prince and of course For You. I think his earlier stuff may have been more fun but you cold understand him less. I forgot James Brown. His live from France ablum. Favorite movies Star Wars. ( What can I say it was the first movie I saw. ), Planet of the Apes, Ben Hur, Enter the Dragon, Master of the Flying Guilotine, A Chinese Ghost Story, Heavan and Earth, Zatoichi vs Yojimbo, Blade was cool but no match for Cleopatra Jones or Jackie Brown, Matrix, The Good The Bad and The Ugly, Magnum Force!! Comics- I'm taking a strong liking Planetary Society, Vintage 70's and 80's Iron Man, Superman has too much power, Vintage Green lantern is good, X-Men when Wolverine was still psychotic-just before he bacame an enlightened man. Superheroes shows-Loved Batman BUT Wonderwoman was better!! next. Bsteph
