Favorite Music All of it. There are only two types of music: good music and bad music. Good music makes listeners FEEL something. Bad music is a collection of notes without purpose. Good music cannot be ignored; Bad music is content to occupy the background space. Good music is performed at the highest level of ability and intensity that the performer is capable of; bad music is content to get by with the barely required minimum. Got it yet? There WILL be a test.
Favorite Books A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson, anything by Asimov, everything by Arthur C Clarke, American Gods by Neil Gaiman
