I'd like to meet:

The cast of the Jack Benny radio show; Remo Williams and Chuin; Tor Johnson and anyone James Lipton doesn't fawn over.

Music:

Is a kind of sound that varies in tone and meter. It also allows large companies to string together cliches with a pleasing sound to make people forget just how much radio sucks.

Movies:

Anything with explosions, beasts, blood or breasts. If a movie has all four, I will be buying the DVD.

Television:

The local cable access channel. Oh, you laugh, but someday City Councilman Armstrong will snap and kill everyone looking for a variance, and YOU'LL wish you had watched it.

Books:

Anything big enough to scare the cat when I drop it. The book, not the cat. She won't let me hold her since The Incident.

Heroes:

Vincent Kennedy McMahon, Michael J Nelson, Tom Servo, Crow T Robot, Dr. Forrester, TV's Frank, Ragman, Giant Size Man-Thing, George Romero
