That’s not Tahiti actually, but it’s in the neighborhood, it’s Bora Bora, about 400 miles northeast of Tahiti. I know, I’ve been fortunate to have spent some time there.
Good, but not my favorite. My favorite is a tie between the last movement of Gustav Mahler’s Resurrection Symphony and the Adagietto from Mahler’s Symphony #5.

If you held a gun to my head, probably 5 times out of 10, I’d say the Bach double. This is definitely my favorite performance of it.
My favorite under appreciated scientist is Richard Garwin.

My favorite poem, at the moment, is “Sailing to Byzantium” by William Butler Yeats. (“That is no country for old men…”) A week ago, I stood on the floor of Hagia Sofia in Istanbul and recited it aloud. And cried.

Oh yeah I forgot one I'm also a Giants fan the one team Belicheat and Tom Shady couldn't beat
There have been many great cliffhanger football games, but my favorite will always be the Ice Bowl. The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat was never more apparent in the dejected faces of Don Meredith and Tom Landry.

Favorite dramatization of a book: The 1995 BBC version of Pride and Prejudice with Jennifer Ehle and Colin Firth. I’m surprised it’s taken me so long to come up with this. I can’t think of anything else I feel so strongly about being my favorite, except maybe the Outback being my favorite car.
