Writing, All Kinds of Humor, Geek Stuff (I swear I never tried to be a trekkie, but somehow am one), Honesty (Not the bland everyday kind, but the late night faded conversations that are half self-diagnosis and half theology, and yet manage to include certain truths that end up meaning something to both of us.)
Fun people, or people who always wanted to be fun but didn't know how.
The radio plays what they want me to hear, tells me it's cool, and I sure believe it. Other than that, Reeve Oliver, Bad Credit, and anyone else I hear drunk at the Blarney Stone.
Big fan of movies. Too many favorites to mention. So I won't.
Futurama, and the Simpsons before they ran out of ideas and went to moronic panderings and pointless randomness.
I read books. I've read a lot of Stephen King (I don't tend to have nightmares, so I read someone elses), Robert A. Heinlein [Stranger in a Strange Land was awesome and I've since read most of his other books (including the very theorical physics intensive Number of the Beast and Time Enough for Love, in which our hero travels back in time to have sex with his mother before getting killed in World War I)], and a number of graphic novels as well (I have a bunch of Batman collections, including the gritty Frank Miller books The Dark Knight Returns and The Dark Knight Strikes Again, but Alan Moore's The Watchmen remains my favorite). This is not to say that I don't care for the classics (in fact I currently digging through the lush, laborious lexicon of Jule Verne), but sometimes I just prefer an easy reading book with purty pictures init.
A hero is someone one aspires to be like. I've yet to meet someone who meets my aspirations. (I somehow manage to be both meek and extremely supercilious.)
