CD's

Jeff Buckley -Grace. Just perfection, a glorious voice and one of the few artists that a man can still feel manly after shedding a tear to a track.

Reuben -Racecar is Racecar Backwards. Young, fast, dangerous, rock, good, excellent t-shirts... just some of the words used to describe this group

Soulwax -Two Many DJ's enough variety to keep you interested and mixing together real classics.

 

DVD's

Jerry Maguire fuck you, I'm a big jessy when it comes to this film and I don't care!

Road to Perdition One of the top Gangster films of all time, can't fault it at all.

The West Wing Series2 Favourite series from favourite tv drama show ever.

 

Books

nothing so luminary as any have offered so far.. but

Are You Dave Gorman- Dave Gorman even though I've read it a million times and could probably tell you ever line it still makes me laugh.

The Art of War- Sun Tzu only chance I reckon I'd get to read it all.. and I could draw diagrams in the sand to help me teach the hermit crabs....

The Bible- some Joker Cos if I find Jesus on the island he might know the way off?

Books:

Lord of the Rings.

A big huge book which has all the wheel of time novels in in it.(its not cheating it will cound for two books :( )

 

DVDS:

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Live at slanes castle. The intro for californication with flea and john superb. I think i could listen to that all day. On off the map dvd during under the bridge the volume seems to just seems to go up another notch, which was quite scary the first time it happend. :o

Hollowed out. Inside, waterproof matches, iodine tablets, beet seeds, protein bars, NASA blanket, and, in case I get bored, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone." No, "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban." Question: did my shoes come off in the plane crash?
