Pat LaFontaine: Favorite Hockey Player of all time....as much for what he's done off the ice as he's done on it......and he did a helluva lot on it.
..I'm also always on the lookout for a partner in crime.

Be sure and check out Black Oak Presents. Black Oak Presents comes in quarterly issues and was founded by Michael Kleen.
I love old rock & roll stuff. Beauty in simplicity. I also like complex European Black and Folk Metal. The kind of stuff that really paints a story, not just a picture.
Mostly just Star Wars really......but also gruesome bloody horror. Also Lord of the Rings which i only recently really got in to. I got teary-eyed and stuffy after seeing Return of the King for the first time. That's the first time i can say that a movie has done that to me. Does that make me a nerd? a wuss? both? i agree.
Some of my favorite actors are Gary Oldman, DeNiro, Willem Dafoe, Jean Reno, Clint Eastwood, Steve McQueen, Clive Owen, Bruce Willis, Samuel L. Jackson, Michael Keaton, Jack Nicholson, Harrison Ford, Viggo Mortenson, Peter O'Toole etc...I really don't care for artsy type films, because once you've seen it, you've seen it. There isn't much replay value in them. I also don't want to have to dig too deep to find the point of a movie. That's not to say I don't want movies that have a message or get you thinking, I just don't want to be forced to. The good movies are the ones that on the surface are entertaining and captivating but also ones you can watch over and over again and also can find new things and meanings every time just watching it. Really, though, I think it just boils down to me disliking movie snobs, which has soured certain movies for me.
Do you wanna hear my cheesy Lord of the Rings joke? No? Well, I'm gonna tell ya anyways.
What do you call Edoras' trendiest clothing store?

The Gap of Rohan! hahahahaha.......I'll shut up now.

It's mostly FOX, Adult Swin on CN, Discovery, The Weather Channel, OLN and CSN Chicago fer ma hockey fixes, The History Channel, The Military Channel, TNT fer ma X-Files fix (even though i have a large quantity of DVD's), ESPN News (because I don't get TSN), CBS and NBC fer ma late-night talk fixes (Letterman and Conan), any of those wife swap shows........those are just mean...
Anything about travel or history, don't read much fiction. I also enjoy technical manuals and atlases (not sure if that's the correct plural of atlas, if you know, let me know). Mostly though it's the books that school has forced upon me (damned hippies!). I read magazines/newspapers more than anything. I do also like graphic novels. My favorite book of all time is Second Chance: A Jack Colquitt Adventure by Raul Bloodworth

Luke Skywalker, Nikola Tesla, Oliver Reed, Syd Barrett, Pat LaFontaine, Assisted-Living Dracula, Moth-Monster Man...........so essentially only mythical archetypes. Also, all the men and women at NASA, especially those astronauts involved in the Apollo space program, who have braved the cold, harsh, vastness of space to take mankind to new places and in some cases have given their lives for it. That is true bravery and they are truly people to be looked up to. ..
