To MEET?
Someone whom I can relate to. Someone entertaining. Someone I can run around with and they don't make me feel lesser, or superior, or anything but what I am. And for the love of gods, someone that isn't a typical fucktard. You know the type. I'm not looking for accomplished, or rich. Just interesting, goddammit, and that's the way I like it.
Apocalyptica, Iced Earth, Bach, Therion, Immortal, Beethoven, Blind Guardian, Metallica, Stravinsky, Vivaldi, Mozart, Dragonland, Chaikovsky, Inkari, Rhapsody (of Fire), Styx, Tangerine Dream, Kansas, Luca Turilli, Enigma, Hellhammer, Amon Amarth, Demons & Wizards, Dargaard, Helloween, Einherjer, Celtic Frost, Venom, Queen, Led Zeppelin, Dragonforce, U2, Cannibal Corpse, REO Speedwagon, Haggard, Asmegin, Hollenthon, Enya, FinnTroll, E.S. Posthumus...Can't think of more right now.
Where to begin!
LORD OF THE RINGS, The Last Samurai, Donnie Darko, Pulp Fiction, Fight Club, Requiem for a Dream, Pi, Dark City, Braveheart, Vampire Hunter D, Unbreakable, Evil Dead, Shaun of the Dead, The 10th Kingdom, Merlin, Hackers, Flatliners, The Labyrinth, The Dark Crystal, A Clockwork Orange, Dawn of the Dead, American History X, The Crow, Kevin Smith films, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure/Bogus Journey, Legend, Boondock Saints, The Last Unicorn (FUCK YOU.), Practical Magic, Monty Python, Fight Club, Snatch, Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels, Reservoir Dogs, Young Frankenstein, History of the World Part I...
Again, that's the general idea.
I haven't had TV in over 2 years. But, when I did, it was mostly Discovery Channel, Cartoon network, the History channel, Animal Planet, the Food network... Nothing worth noting, besides Gargoyles. Loved that damn show.
This should be longer than it's going to be. Much longer.

"What value can one ordinary man have in a magical world?
What can a mortal bring to the affairs of immortals?
Insight. Honor. Morality. Perspective.
Because nothing makes love and life matter more
than the knowledge that some day it must end."
