Helene's Interests
General
Music, Illustration, 70s European Sequential Art...AKA:Comix, knitting...some of my stuff is hiding over at http://www.myspace.com/helenenoise (yeah, I goofed up when I started this page). Check it, etc., blah blah blah...Guitar, Ukulele, InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator talk and blogs and all the other junk related to leading and kerning. ;-D
Music
PopPopPop--hard noisy pop that is. Hawaiian. 80s pop/punk/new wave (Lene Lovich, Thomas Dolby, Police, Ramones, Pretenders (of course), Dave Edmunds, Bjork, Television, etc.). The hoary chestnuts: Stones/Beatles. Fun pop(yeah I like that Disney robo-music machine junk sometimes [it's poppy! it's well, uh, "engineered"!]), and Pink continues to be an obsession-due to her amazing, honest voice. Basically, I like anything with a melody and some OOMPH to it.
Movies
Casablanca, Wizard of Oz, Run Lola Run, Spirited Away, Les Triplettes de Belleville, Classic Disney animation, Beetlejuice, All About Eve, The Shining.
Television
Yankees Games & UCONN Lady Huskies. Jon Stewart. What Not To Wear (not that you can tell by the way I dress...ha ha)
Books
Brave New World Brave New World Brave New World(due for another read), The Cider House Rules, St. Joan, Sophie's Choice, LOTR, All the Harry Potter...and thanks to Rachel--the Discworld series, which I've barely made a dent in! Nonfiction: a bit of a political junkie, Jon Krakauer.
Heroes
My hubby--the most honest, decent, straighforward man I know.

Too true! Even true of this, a cover of a more-bitter-than-sweet Prince b-side; gotta love MM's spin on it. Sweet and semi-sad despite the happy little uke ditty.
