I'd like to meet:

Music:

If Jay-Z and George Michael did a duet, the world would be simultaneously so much gayer and so much straighter, and the space-time continuum would collapse in on itself, which is why Clive Davis needs to make that shit happen YESTERDAY.

Movies:

Have you seen Sleepaway Camp II? Do yourself a HUUUUGE favor and go see Pamela Springsteen torture innocent teens at camp.

Television:

We should really all be watching more MTV , especially when/if Sara's disturbingly lifelike visage is on it.

But the Internets have so much to offer us, like TUB TALK: THE LOST EPISODES! !AND DON'T MISS ALL-NEW TUB TALK EPISODES WITH AUTHOR JONATHAN AMES, COMEDIAN ADAM WADE, AND DIRECTOR BRENDAN COLTHURST IN FEBRUARY 2008!

Books:

Sara helped write this book: Position of the Day: Expert Edition: Sex Every Day in Every Day.

You may also enjoy her MTV News blog/vlog .

Or perhaps her sex blog on Nerve.com .

All are quite interesting.

Heroes:

This lady.
And also this lady.
Oh, and this lady, too.
And, in the same vein, this fellow.
And of course, this great departed lady.

And then there's Kelly.
