Movies:
Curb Your Enthusiasm (I know it's not technically a movie but, few of you know this, Larry David is actually my crazy, Jewish long-lost Uncle whom I absolutely adore.

I mean you look at rad pictures and listen to fabulous stories... so it's like reading when you were a kid!
Heroes:
Cory Fuckin Sullivan (Go Rockies!). The only person who has successfully beaten me at my own game. I smacked the top of his beer bottle expecting foam to shoot forcefully into his mouth so I could guffaw with glee but he swiftly re-directed the spewing head RIGHT INTO MY EYE. It was beautiful.Michael Jordan.And the guy that invented those tall, inflated, man-looking, brightly-colored, tubular things that blow in the wind outside of old school cell phone/pager stores. You know the ones. They are usually green or purple or yellow and they look like they're dancing and you have no idea what purpose they could possibly serve. Well, they have a purpose. They make me insanely happy. Even their little faux fingers dance!
