I'd like to meet:

People. Duh. Not Zombies. Obviously.Probably not tweakers either, no matter how cool their theme song is...

Music:

I am an iPod junkie so a little bit of everything really. But the last actual complete CDs I bought/illegally copied were Dramarama, Miranda Lambert, Dashboard Confessional, HIM, Kanye's newest, AFI, and the Across the Universe Soundtrack. And about 40 singles. It was a slow month. Any suggestions?

Movies:

My all time top 12 (in no particular order): Harold and Maude, Before Sunrise/Before Sunset, Can't Hardly Wait, MallRats, Army of Darkness, Fight Club, Office Space, Secretary, South Park, The Man Who Fell to Earth, The Truth About Cats and Dogs. Honorable Mentions include V for Vendetta, Serenity, Shaun of the Dead, Notting Hill, They Live, and Dirty Filthy Love. My favorite genre as a whole is horror!

Television:

Currently: Heroes, Big Bang Theory, American Idol, Lost, House, The Office, South Park, Battlestar Galactica, Doctor Who, Pushing Daisies, Dexter, and anything being numbered backwards and counted down (The 40 most ...etc.) or featuring random people taking a trip down memory lane (I Love the decade...etc.)...Old Favorites: Buffy, Angel, Star Trek, Boy Meets World, Joan of Arcadia, Quantum Leap, X-files

Books:

All of them. In the World.My lastest reads include: The Story of O (S&M), Eclipse (again! hot teenage vampires), Darkly Dreaming Dexter (the book the Showtime series was based on), Pride and Prejudice(a classic and good but I still don't get the big fuss over Mr. Darcy. He seemed kinda cranky to me!) and Star Trek: The Final Frontier (it's okay... I already know I'm a giant dork.)

Heroes:

We don't need another.

Overrated!

Sadly Stonehenge was LAME. There was no museum, no nothing. Just Stonehenge and you can't even get that up close to it. There's like a little rope fence that stops you from getting even like 15 feet c...
