Photos I took of the lovely Celeste:
Well fantasy speaking:
Jesus and Buddha, then we only need one more for a decent poker game.
Any of the Sport's Illustrated models would be nice as well, and those oh so lovely Victoria's Secret Ladies.
On a more serious note regarding whom I would like to meet, who knows?, maybe You.
These sayings pretty well sum it up for me:
"I'm a Mog, half man, half dog. I'm my own best friend."-John Candy (from Mel Brook's "Space Nuts".)
Angel-headed hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of the night -Alan Ginsberg, 'Howl'
"My friends often ask me what I find attractive in a woman, well...........me!"- Rodney Dangerfield
Go chicken, Go! Run to Freedom, Go, Go, Live your life!"-Borat
"The only way to have a friend is to be one.-Ralph Waldo Emerson
"You can be in my dream, if I can be in yours."-Bob Dylan
""And remember my sentimental friend, that a heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others."-The Wizard of Oz
Happiness, Content, Joy.
The meanings for the Sun are fairly simple and consistent.
Young, healthy, new, fresh. The brain is working, things that were muddled come clear, everything falls into place, and everything seems to go your way.
The Sun is ruled by the Sun, of course. This is the light that comes after the long dark night, Apollo to the Moon's Diana. A positive card, it promises you your day in the sun. Glory, gain, triumph, pleasure, truth, success. As the moon symbolized inspiration from the unconscious, from dreams, this card symbolizes discoveries made fully consciousness and wide awake. You have an understanding and enjoyment of science and math, beautifully constructed music, carefully reasoned philosophy. It is a card of intellect, clarity of mind, and feelings of youthful energy.

All kinds, I love every style of music.
My latest favorite line from a film as spoken by Ed Harris playing Ludwig Van Beethoven in "Copying Beethoven" : "The vibrations on the air are the breath of God speaking to man's soul. Music is the language of God. We musicians are as close to God as man can be. We hear his voice, we read his lips, we give birth to the children of God, who sing his praise. That's what musicians are. Either that, or we are nothing."
"It occurred to me by intuition, and music was the driving force behind that intuition. My discovery was the result of musical perception."- Albert Einstein
