Favorite Music | Mostly girls with guitars (yep - I'm that cliche):, Janis Joplin, Indigo Girls, Patrice Pike, The Be Good Tanyas, Rilo Kiley, Brandi Carlile, Tegan & Sara, Ani DiFranco, Dar Williams. I have love for some dudes too:, the Beatles, Beastie Boys, Grateful Dead, Kings of Leon, Neil Young, Old 97s, Weezer, Nirvana, other assorted '60s '70s and '90s rock bands (not too big on the '80s) |
Favorite Books | In Cold Blood, One Hundred Years of Solitude, Fingersmith, Middlesex, Bel Canto, anything by Erma Bombeck, The Elements of Style (Strunk & White. Recognize.), I am also going through the volumes of all of the Peanuts strips. They're pretty consistenly excellent. |
Radio wire is often used to make bird nests. What station do they listen to?
Probably the local NPR affiliate. Birds seem like they would want to stay informed.
