Music, duh. Drumming, reading, Broadway plays, hanging out in NYC, lounges, seeing live bands, 80's flicks, history, Salem Witch Trials, Salem, MA, Wicca, Buddhism, everything Jersey, traveling, performing, Full House re-runs, playing craps (in a casino holmes), drinking merlot, the Alaskan Pipeline, pancakes (especially pumpkin pancakes)...visit the Country Pancake House in Ridgewood...killer pumpkin pancakes.
Everyone usually says Jesus. That's swell and all, but I figure I'll probably meet him 60-70 years from now anyway. So while I am here, I'd like to stick with someone who can't walk on water. Our troops over seas and George W. Bush. I would proudly shake their hands and thank them all for keeping our country safe from further abuse by fanatics. The father of Wicca, Gerald Gardner. Hillary Andrews from the Weather Channel...dude..she makes a tornado sound sexy. Meg Ryan. Love her. Absolutely love her. My brain actually stutters when I think of her. Albert Einstein....cheese and crackers that cat was smart. Cole Porter...the original lyrical gangta.
Everything. Who needs limits. But if you were to pigeon-hole me....Cole Porter, Copperpot, The Ramones, Iron Maiden, AC/DC, Depeche Mode, The Cure, The Smiths, Alphaville, The Lightning Seeds, Simple Minds, U2, Squeeze, REM, INXS, Fountains of Wayne, Rod Stewart, Stevie Wonder, Rush, Ned's Atomic Dustbin, Perry Como, Danzig, Alkaline Trio, Butch Walker,CKY, KMFDM, Morrissey, Peter Murphy, Erasure, Material Issue, OMD, Joy Division....and then New Order, The Cars, Journey, Toto, REO Speedwagon, The Killers, Urge Overkill, Kiss, They Might Be Giants, Our Lady Peace, Van Halen, and Bad Religion. Quite eclectic, I know. But like I said....who needs limits?
The Breakfast Club, Weird Science...pretty much an John Hughes flick, The Patriot, Gods and Generals, Christmas Vacation, You've Got Mail, Ghostbusters 1 and 2, Sleepy Hollow, Say it isn't So, Miracle on 34th Street, Good Will Hunting, Airplane!, Airplane 2!, Watership Down, How I Got Into College, Red Dawn, Them.
Fox News Channel, THe History Channel, Full House, Little House on the Prairie, Cheers, Seinfeld, Get a Life (This was an actual show back in 1990 starring Chris Elliot that lasted only one season, but it was brilliant).
How to Talk to a Liberal(If You Must)-Ann Coulter. -This is a must read, great book. Anything by historians Joseph J. Ellis and David Hackett Fischer. Pretty much every book Stephen King has ever written.
Everyone of you here and around the world who puts their life on line to keep our great country safe. Personal heroes/icons? Neil Peart, John Bonham, Johnny Ramone, Ronald Reagan, Dubya, Einstein, Cole Porter....but honestly we can all be heroes if just for one day.
