- Ani DiFranco
- My initial introduction to the inspirational and extremely prolific Ms. DiFranco....it also happens to be one intensely personal live document of the transition between punk-folkie Ani and the experimental/minimalist mindset that infiltrated her later "So Much Shouting" concert release.
If I can relate to the power of lines such as "My cunt is built like a wound that won't heal," you too will be moved.

- Mezzanine

- Massive Attack
- Good old MA. Everytime I jam "Angel" everything I do suddenly goes slo-mo and badass, with wraparound shades and machine guns. And that's okay by me!

- Shooter: The Autobiography of the Top-Ranked Marine Sniper
-
- Sgt. Jack Coughlin
- Why the conventional military recognize the truly impressive and unconventional weapon that is the master sniper is beyond me. Coughlin's insights on effectively working within those confines and still coming out on top make this a must-read. You don't have to wield the long gun to have the sniper's mentality. Although it helps when you can shoot people out of Banshees.

- What the F*ck Is Wrong with You People?
-
- Combichrist
- "Give Head if You Get It" sums it up. Oh you want more? Well, Andy LaPlegua is also similar act Panzer AG, but Combichrist is that group's more bass-heavy, roughsex sample-friendly kid brother. If you're sick and tired of Trent Reznor's whiny old ass angsting on Year Zero, have some fun for a change.

- The Berzerker
-
- The Berzerker
- Apocalyptic visions of the complete opposite of gay-bar techno heat-stamped by Napalm Death riffs and nihilism taken straight from the bottle of Jim Beam. If you're not dropping cellulite and sweating so hard you stain the carpet, the hell is wrong with you.
-
- The Orange Box
-
- So yeah, critics are hailing this the "best value in video gaming." Which is fairly accurate, considering you get five fun titles in the package. Half-Life 2 is still awesome after all these years, and this time you don't need a computer that costs as much as a Hyundai to play it on.
-
- Halo 3
-
- Lots of fun and entertainment the first couple weeks. Then I realized the campaign was....like the second campaign, which was like.....the first campaign....which involved...a lot of corridors and going back into corridors and The Flood.
Then I realized that I DIDN'T have to always run for the Rockets in Pit. Or Narrows. Or Epitaph for that matter.
Fuck the Rockets! Yeah!
Enlightenment frees the soul.
Next!

- Augusten Burroughs
- I don't know if this was supposed to be made into a movie just yet, but it definitely strikes a chord. My favorite self-deprecating homosexual author ever.

- OMFG....There are only two things in this world that would make me give up Halo. And pussy is a close second.
