Devin Townsend for defining everything I want to and aspire to be as a creative individual and as a musician. Spider-Man. Dimebag Darrell for simply being the best at what he did and going down in a haze of glory doing what he loved most. Bill Hicks for telling it how it is and not holding back, my sister Veronika whose favorite pasttime hobby is being on my ass about everything, my friend Peyton Crow who gets what he wants because he works hard to get it, any musician who makes good, original music for the sake of making it and not for a buck, any person who lives their life freely, and lastly, Don Vito, for making me want to be a strong healthy person who speaks english fluently and coherently and is also a respectable member of society. I salute you all!
