I'd like to meet:
Met him. He's mine. Hail Eris!
I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.

Music:
Punk, rockabilly, ska, country, metal, rock, classic rock, classical, swing, jazz, doo-wop, folk. Very limited tastes, as you can see.

Snatch, Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrells, Pan's Labrynth, Blade Runner, Children of Men, The Fountain, The Good Shepherd (minus Angelina Jolie...), This Is Spinal Tap (It goes to 11!), Spellbound, The Big Lebowski, l'Auberge Espagnol, Reservoir Dogs, American Splendor, I Hell, just about anything that doesn't suck... or if it does suck, it has to be comfortable with sucking.
Television:
TV sucks. It's the opiate of humanity. I haven't had a tv for more than movie watching in over two months, and its awesome. I do miss Family Guy, though.
I have to admit my undying love of House and Scrubs. Something about jerks in hospitals....
Books:
The Dark Tower books, The Dune books, Catch-22, God Knows, We, 1984, Animal Farm, Flatland, Ender's Game, Speaker for The Dead, Children of the Mind, Ender's Shadow, Anything at all by Morgan Llewellyn, The Bible, The First Man In Rome, The Grass Crown.
History, Sci-fi, Fantasy, Historical Fiction, I like escapism in literature. I've also begun reading an author named David Sedaris. I totally blame Chris for this, but Sedaris is damn hilarious. I'm also trying to get through The Golden Bough and Serpent and Shaman: A Jungian Look At Mythology. House of Leaves. Fuck me, that's a great book.
Heroes:
The Goddess Eris, My Grandparents, Ender and Peter Wiggin, Roland of Gilead, Randall Flagg, Mordred (in any incarnation)
