Life has taught me many lessons and I expect to learn many more before I'm through. 2007 was a huge eye opener for me. I just hope those lessons stay with me well past 2008.

I'm not a big reader. The last book I read was the Heroin Diaries. I want to get Robert Schimmel's new book though.
It's not good to put people on a pedastal and refer to them as heroes. I don't believe in idolizing anyone. People are human and they will fuck up and let you down.

NEVER!It's best to admire people and their accomplishments as opposed to making them into some kind of "hero"
