Tchaikovsky. Vivaldi. Sade. Depends on my mood. I like ELO, BTO and alot of others. But I find them to be serious earworm.
Movies
Citizen Kane. Duck Soup. Brazil. Harold and Maude. Dont be alarmed if you havent heard of any of these. The best movies are hard to find. Make some popcorn and Ill be over to show you.
I really like movies that are well done, yet you have to wonder who put the money up for them to be made.
I am not one to watch a movie until I have it memorized. There are too many I want to see yet to watch what i have seen over and over.
New movies... the only movies I have liked the past few years were all done by Pixar.
People that study up on 'the stars' of Hollywood. I have a question for you. Why dont you worship the people that grew your breakfast. Nor those who assembled the engine in your car. And if they came on TV and started giving you their opinion on politics or who to vote for, you would tell them to get lost. So why the worshiping and validating the opinion of those who spend all day creating make believe over those who make reality?
I really dont know what to watch since Frasier went down hill. The stuff on TV today really can not compete with watching the temperature change at the bank.
Books
One online test I like is this political quiz. Quick, and accurate enough. If you like this one, you will love the second, but you have to work for it.
The haleonline.com Myers-Briggs in 4 questions is no longer free. Though you can take it here, the archive will not run the script to score the test. But that is easy enough to do manually.
Page 1, Column A=Extrovert; B=Introvert
Page 2, Column A=Sensing; B=iNtuitive
Page 3, Column A=Thinking; B=Feeling
Page 4, Column A=Judging B=Perceiving
Now take the capital letters, and plug them into this URL,
"Capitalism is the unequal distribution of wealth; communism is the equal distribution of poverty."
Dont shoot the messenger, it is just an observed fact of history. I mention this to share the rationale behind my being distant from the currently popular regulated economic theory.
I usually do well on tests like this. So I dug around to see why I got a 'below average'. On Q3, they have the correct answer as "If Jody doesn't go to jail, she paid her ticket." This assumes that the only way to go to jail is to not pay a ticket. If that is the right answer, I prefer to stay 'below average'.

Ooooh... I just noticed that this is your first comment. So I gues I should just ponder all of the funny or stupid things I could say about being "Your First" comment.
But after all that though the only thing I can come up with is...
