music, bicycles, tennis, design, architecture , french horn, bass. cities, mountains, large bodies of water, rusty metal , things falling apart

Heroes:
john galt
floyd landis - i've never had a "real life hero" until now. the man is a champion. he's been robbed of his tour title by news hungry media and egotistical anti doping officials and yet floyd persists in a fight that no one else has the guts to pursue. yeah, the athletic world needs to be cleaned... but it can't be done by an organization that is itself corrupt.
