What Will Your Famous Last Words Be?
I'd like to meet:
People who are dead. People who are now considered literary masterminds - Shakespeare, Emily Dickinson, The Brother's Grim, Shel Silverstein, etc; famous artists in every meaning of the word art - Edward Munch in particular; political figures in history - Thomas Jefferson, Rosa Parks, Albert Einstein, hell even Hitler [that would definitely interesting]. I'd want to know how wrong the information is or isnt about their lives and loves. Jesus, the master of matter, cant leave out Jesus! I love meeting people who have substance! More modernly and less vague: Roman Dirge, Tim Burton, Neil Gaimen, Kevin Griffin, Trent Reznor, Colleen Atwood, Jennifer Tilly, Zach Braff.

Heroes:
My grandmother - who was a wealth of knowledge and love, my mother and father - for always wanting the best for and out of me. Myself - because I am the shit! My sister - she is wonderfully talented and beautiful. Those who challenge me. Those who helped make the world a better place. Those who can be witty without stooping to all new lows of disgustingness. Parents that actually care what kind of example they are setting for their children and not just say they do. People who can use blinkers and come to complete stops at intersections. Those who persevere throughout any hardship. Educators that love educating and show it. The people at Double Shot Espresso for always making wonderful brews. People who can be smart without being pretentious. Gary the numa numa guy [he makes me happy]. The various artists at deviantart.com [go there!] whose artwork is featured in the slideshows, because I love the art they are doing and so should you!
