I'd like to meet:
Fellow TV news/media peers
other MMA fans/fighters

Batman/Justice League Unlimited viewers
PORN STARS!
Of course a broad range of new people for
a broad range of new things.
ALSO, the delicious JORDAN CAPRI.
I still harbor that crush I've had since college for
CNN Headline News anchor ROBIN MEADE.
Music:
Chicago is synonomous with House music, so what'd ya' think I listen to? Really like mixes by DJ's who can MIX. Add new wave/synth pop, all other types of dance music, rap, slow jamz, R&B(Luther, Marvin, Al, Teddy, Barry, etc.), jazz(not that Dave Koz shite), Metallica, Rage Against the Machine, Smashing Pumpkins and 80's. No country here! Once in a while get that taste for Sinatra, Tony Bennett and mafia-type music.
Movies:
SHOWDOWN- The MMA documentary I helped shoot. Chronicles events leading to and including the Hook'N'Shoot match between Yves Edwards and Aaron Riley. Many consider that match "Fight of the Year 2001". Buy the DVD at www.Fightworld.com.

Television:

Books:
Reading Bruce Lee's work has led me to Jiddu Krishnamurti's writings. I'm on and off with his book "Total Freedom." Lots of re-reading. Still planning to find audio of his presentations because I'm told the writings don't do his material justice.
Heroes:
Kazushi Sakuraba(Saku), Vanderlei Silva, Yves Edwards, Randy Couture, Shogun Rua, Takanori Gomi, Genki Sudo, Igor Vovchanchin and Emelianenko Fedor.
Fictional heros would be Batman and James Bond.
Bruce Lee was a huge hero and influence. I studied Shotokan Karate as a kid, but Si-Gung started my true martial arts journey. Though I give him credit for showing me the proper path of martial arts development, I'm not a "BL-trekkie" and am not obsessed with his exact curriculum of Jun Fan/JKD. The childish argument within Jeet Kune Do betwen "original" and "concepts" camps was enough for me to leave JKD behind.
