My current obsession is with Jamie Hyneman of Mythbusters fame. I would love to meet him, but that ain't all I would like to do (evil grin). I would also like to meet Garth Brooks, the Barenaked Ladies, and Richard Dean Anderson. I wish I could say there were someone other than a celebrity I would like to meet, but all politicians currenlty in the world's eye strike me as poopie-heads, maybe I will update this later if I come up with anybody else.

Ron, for putting up with me all this time; my parents, for showing me what true personal growth and unconditional love is;
