quiet but i carry a big stick for when it's time to talk and walk the walk, just in case.

driving along pch on a foggy day, looking at blurry images, biking uphill just to see the view from above and then going downhill as fast as my nerves can handle, trying old family recipes and sharing them with good friends, travelling without any specific itinerary, sharing life stories over mango and sticky rice, getting to know people beyond the surface.

my morning jacket, cowboy junkies, portishead, buena vista social club, cesaria evora, brazzaville, bebel, lovage(music to make love to your old lady by), dre, radiohead, nick cave, nick drake, bowie, ferry, clapton, vintage pj harvey, kruder und dorfmeister (just because of the name), marley, marvin, nina, miles, duke, chet, coltrane, and billie holliday.

north by northwest, blue, red, kill bill vols. 1 and 2, pulp fiction, until the end of the world, lisbon story, bullitt, cinema paradiso, rushmore, sexy beast, contempt, persona, the five obstructions, the graduate, eternal sunshine of the spotless mind.

jon stewart, letterman and conan ( none of that leno crap)., bernie mac cracks me up!

noli me tangere, a thousand years of non linear history, a hundred years of solitude ( still trying to figure out who's related to who), the book of laughter and forgetting, catcher in the rye, lolita, you shall know our velocity, invisible cities, global soul, non-places, informal, s, m, l, xl and anything by bruce mau, the french laundry cookbook, photo books on magnum, w. eugene smith, cartier-bresson, andreas gursky and uta barth.
