I'd like to meet:

Al Davis, Art Shell, Tim Brown, Jim Otto,John Madden and the BLACK FUCKING HOLE!!! ~~~ Thom Yorke of Radiohead~~Howard Jones and Adam Dutkiewicz from KSE~~Ozzy's old ass~~ Mudvayne ...again (perhaps next time I won't be scared to talk)~~a lot of other great musicians~~ Kate Beckinsale(mmmm!!) ...Those I missed out on: Tupac~~Keith Whitley~~Biggy ...
A lot of other people. But for reality's sake, I'd just like to meet cool people in general.

Music:

I love almost every type of music there is. I used to be predictable as hell but since this past summer (and I suppose summers before then ) I've been digging more on Rock than anything (System of a Down, Cold, Mudvayne, Killswitch Engage, 10 Years, Nonpoint, RADIOHEAD, etc). I still like R&B/Rap (I'm still the same Jon B.) but the music today is digressing to something that I just don't feel anymore.

Movies:

A movie list could take a while, but some that I've really enjoyed: Underworld 1 & 2, Lord of the Rings Trilogy, Tombstone, Braveheart, The Lost Boys, Lucas, Young Guns, Saving Silverman, 40 Year Old Virgin, She's The One, I Am Sam, Wedding Crashers, Belly, Menace II Society, Boyz N Tha Hood, Higher Learning, New Jack City, Above the Rim, Juice, Poetic Justice, Almost Famous, Blow, High Fidelity, Rent ....the list could go on and on.

Books:

Invisible Man , The Stand, Christine, Confessions of Nat Turner, Set This House on Fire, 1984

Heroes:

My mother - she is the strongest person I know and I can only hope that I will be half the person she isTupac - one of the most genuine people I have ever known. Pac was always honest about shit and his words were his greatest weapons. He was to my generation what Malcolm X and Martin Luther King, Jr was to people in the 60's. His poems are great and his lyrics dealt with real shit...not about how much money he had or how many diamonds laced his neck.
Keith Whitley - He wrote some of the greatest country songs ever and I will always smile when I hear his songs and think back to my past.

The Most Important Election in American History

A History of Music According to Jon B Part 1

Everyone has a story to tell... I have said it many times. Maybe this one's not so personal in some people's opinion, but if you know anything about me then you know that music is very personal to me....
