Musik, Filme und Bücher

I think anything done by Jim Henson in the mid-80's is fantastic: "Follow That Bird", "The Dark Crystal", and to a lesser extent "Labyrinth". I just saw the film "Man on Wire" about the guy who walks on a tightrope from one World Trade Center to the other and it made me a little queasy.

I'm a big fan of late-50's novels: "Last Exit To Brooklyn", "Lolita", "The Dharma Bums", etc.

And, of course, the newest Dixie Chicks album.

I once sang the Sesame Street theme song with Roscoe Orman, who has played Gordon on the show since 1973!
