Find yourself tired and bored silly by reality TV programming? Do you think that Reality TV leaves little to be desired and insulting to your intelligence? Wish that you could spend at least part of your summer engaging your imagination without having to put to much effort into this most auspicious pursuit? Yeah… me too!
Fear not my fellow geeks because I'm giving to you, my lists of favourite things. These are lists of some of my favourite books, and movies from past to present. Some of the movies are those I'm looking forward to this year. So give them a try, it's good, clean, campy fun with only a bit of seriousness to shake of complacency. I'll try over the coming months to contribute more to the list as I hear more news and gather more extensive lists. My website should be ready by September and I'll have all this information and more included on it.
