music (a given), promoting said music, learning, WSUM (greatest of all possible college radio stations in a five mile radius, ask anyone), reading (again, a given), procrastination
I'd like to meet:
Anyone who can play an E flat diminished ninth, if such a chord exists. Anyone with more CDs than articles of clothing, especially if they aced sharing 101 in kindergarten. Bonus points for making me laugh and use of the word mosey. Anyone who understands the genius of this: www.asofterworld.com

Heroes:
i'm not big on heroes per say. but ian mackaye for sure. not necessarily for the sXe thing in and of itself but for what he's accomplished on his own terms and for being self aware enough to just do it. i'm slightly awed by anyone who creates art because it's something i can't do, but that's more about respect.
