Music:

I have my own channel on yahoo music: http://yme.music.yahoo.com/ymjNav/2.0/ymu/profile/1239589368 . My taste is really diverse. I almost don't even care what music genre I'm listening to as long as there is some level of prodigical talent, or expression. This includes Steve Vai, Chirs Opperman, Mike Keneally, Frank Zappa, Green Day, Matchbox 20, Daughtry, Bon Jovi, Billy Joel, Elton John, Chicago, Eagles, Beattles, Beach Boys, Nirvana, U2, Cream, Led Zepplin, most Classical Music, Opera performances particularly Verdi, and Puccini. Some exceptions that I like anyway are Maroon 5, Blink 182, Fall Out Boy, Aerosmith, and many more. No Pop shit with little miss teeny bopper USA.

Movies:

I like good stories for the most part, Clint Eastwood movies, Kevin Costner movies. I like my share of Suspense: I am Legend, and Action Movies. An occasional chick flick, Notting Hill, and that Christmas Love story isn't bad either.

Television:

Boston Legal, 24, Lost, South Park, Simpsons. News: Daily Show, Bill Moyers, Frontline, Hardball. Any thing on a station which ends with the word "Channel": Sience Channel, Discovery Channel, National Geographic Channel, History Channel, Military Channel.

Books:

Fiction: Michael Crichton, and Dan Brown. I also read alot of periodicals specific to forecasting, supply chain, and retail.

Heroes:

I wouldn't say I've ever had someone rescue me so I' don't have any heroes, but there are some people I have tremendous respect for and idolize. Joe Biden, Jon Stewart, Bill Moyers, Bill Clinton, Al Gore. In my childhood there were some people that set a great example for me including: Brian Welker, and Kent Bania.My anti-Hero is George Bush who in his term has tremendous negative impact on our place in the world economically, ethically, militarily. The dollar has been falling and Bush continues to say our economy is sound. The world doesn't trust us to stand by our word and moral presedence. Our Military is too small for the scale of the continuous action in Iraq delpleting our ability to confront future needs, let alone internal needs from our National Guard. Mercenary hiring is also a huge issue, see my blog.
