Anything creative and everything that makes me laugh. Music, photography, writing and sport (at work) take up most of my time ... oh, and going out for a beer with anyone who'll join me. Food, glorious food, also gets me. I love breakfast (when I get it), lunch and dinner. I can cook a bit - it's pretty therapeutic sometimes, and always tasty.
Music
Currently listening to:
Death Cab For Cutie - Narrow Stairs
M83 - Saturdays = Youth
Roisin Murphy - Overpowered
Faker - Be The Twilight
The Kooks - Konk
UNKLE - War Stories
Nine Inch Nails - The Slip, Ghosts
Movies
I'll give anything a shot ... I love foreign cinema, particularly films out of France and Japan when I get the chance to see them.
Television
Lost, Heroes, Grey's Anatomy, Extras, The Office, Spicks And Specks, Cutting Edge, Australian Idol (I admit it), Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares, the news and other stuff. Good documentaries really turn my insides in circles.
Books
Yeh, I read them - not too often, but I read them. I have worked on a couple, too.
Currently reading:
Dinner With Mugabe by Heidi Holland
Heroes
Boxers - people, rather than underwear - and my good mate Alwyn. He's an inspiration. My late friend Ben also empowers me always, even though he left us too early in November 2004. He'll forever be my friend, and forever helps me out in tough times. Thank you Smailesy. I miss you, buddy :-(

Photo-journalism is a field I am aiming to work in. I post at ~a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/foraggio/sets/" target="_blank"> this flickr page~/a>
Foraggio's Companies
News Limited Sydney, NSW AU Sports editor FOX SPORTS.com.au
About me:
In all honesty, I just like a good laugh. My passions are music - listening and playing (drums, guitar) - photography (See my Flickr sets here) - writing (stories, songs, thoughts), travel and experiencing other parts of the world, and a stack of other stuff. Reality TV often sucks me in, and I know I should read more, but as a journalist, I figure I read all day.
I have worked across all media - newspapers, magazines, TV, radio. I'm currently the Sports Editor at Bigpond, which is responsible for Austra;ia's two highest trafficked sports websites - AFL.com.au and follow foraggio at http://twitter.com
