My favorite music: |
|
Over the Rhine |
| comments: My friend Carrie once asked me who my favorite band was. I replied, "I don't know." She said, "Well, I do. It's Over the Rhine." And I guess she's right. |
|
Waterdeep |
| comments: It's great to have friends that make such great music. If you don't have Lori's latest, 1beginning, I strongly urge you to hop on over to grassrootsmusic.com and get it. |
|
John Mayer |
| comments: Great musician, naturally funny, handsome...no wonder half of America's young single women have a crush on him. Play on, John. |
|
David Gray |
| comments: The music is great, plus he moves his head like a bobble-head doll. I'd like to put him on my dashboard, but I think he's too big in real life. |
|
The Be Good Tanyas |
| comments: How is it that the same CD that makes me clean faster also relaxes me to the point of limp limbs? |
My favorite movies: |
|
Wings of the Dove |
| comments: Simply beautiful. I saw it three times in the theatre. If you happen to make the acquaintance of someone with a very large television and surround sound, you should suggest that they invite you over to watch this movie. |
|
Dancing at Lughnasa |
| comments: No one else I know really likes this movie, but maybe I just don't know the right people... |
|
The Little Princess |
| comments: I like the newest version; it's a sweet little movie. I cry every time I watch it. |
|
Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken |
| comments: I have loved this movie for a long time. |
|
Say Anything |
| comments: I like so many things that John Cusack has been in, but this one always wins as my favorite. |
My favorite authors: |
|
Rainer Maria Rilke |
| comments: "There will be a book that includes these pages, and she who takes it in her hands will sit staring at it a long time, until she feels that she is being held and you are writing." |
|
Anne Lamott |
| comments: Who could resist someone who is both candid and warm? |
|
Louisa May Alcott |
| comments: There is so much more to her than "Little Women". |
|
Bailey White |
| comments: Her stories are little treasures; I have yet to meet someone who doesn't enjoy hearing one read aloud. |
|
C.S. Lewis |
| comments: A great essayist and a supreme storyteller to boot. What's not to love? |
